Parents and students, please help us have a great year and be sure to review the student dress expectations outlined below.

Student Attire (Dress Code)

Students who do not meet the following guidelines will be asked to change, remove, or cover questionable item (s). Continued offenses will be handled as insubordination. The guidelines listed are not to imply that this is the complete list and may include any item deemed inappropriate and/or in bad taste by the administration. If a student/parent/guardian has a question about a particular item, please contact the school administration before wearing the item.

1. Headwear, including but not limited to hats, hoodies, and bandanas., unless approval has been given by building administration (Spirit Days)

2. Shorts and skirts or dresses must reach the top of the ipad when turned horizontally and held at the top of the knee. No rips or tears above this length will be acceptable.

3. Midriff and/or stomach must not be showing. This includes midriff not showing during the normal course of the day (moving from class to class and getting in and out of locker).

4. No spaghetti strap type tank tops will be allowed. No low cut sleeveless shirts will be allowed as well.

5. Clothing items that advertise alcoholic beverages, tobacco, illegal drugs and/or clothing with suggestive or obscene messages are prohibited. This also includes phrases with dual meanings.

6. Shoes are to be worn at all times.

7. For safety reasons, chains or clothing with excessive metal objects and/or straps are not to be worn. This includes wallet chains, dog collar necklaces with sharp points, and neck chains.

8. Sunglasses, unless approved for medical reasons, are not to be worn in the building.

10. Book bags, gym bags, briefcases, purses, coats, blankets, and athletic jackets are not to be taken to classrooms. Teacher discretion if classroom temperature is an issue.

Note: Certain academic area classes may require a more stringent requirement regarding dress. The school reserves the right to impose other reasonable requirements due to health or safety concerns while involved in certain activities.

New state law, Senate Enrolled Act 185, bans cellphones during instruction time unless specifically permitted by the teacher for educational purposes. Student cellphones should be turned off and stored in their lockers or turned off and out of sight. We thank all of our students and families in advance for your cooperation with this new law.
