Students should dress appropriately at all times (attire should be size appropriate).  Dress should never distract from school activities or prove a hazard to the student's safety or the the safety of others.  In the judgment of the administration, a student not appropriately attired or whose grooming constitutes a distraction or disturbance to the school environment, will be sent home and not readmitted until he/she is properly attired or groomed.

The following attire is inappropriate:

• Hats/headbands
• Tank tops, jerseys, shirts, blouses, sweaters or dresses that are inappropriately revealing (including spaghetti straps)
• Jeans with holes
• Clothing which allows undergarments to be visible when standing or sitting
• Any clothing that has obscene or profane language, depiction of alcoholic beverages or unlawful substances, and/or gang related
• Clothing that contains messages, slogans, or symbols that promote racial discord such as rebel flags on shirts or bandanas
• Clothing which exposes the midriff (tops must extend below the beltline and/or be tucked in at all times.)
• Tattoos, either permanent or temporary (These must be covered.)
• Visible body piercing jewelry (except of the ears)
• Hair that is sprayed or dyed in unnatural colors such as blue, pink, green, orange, or yellow.

Shorts, skirts, capri pants, and dresses must be knee-length or longer.

The above listing is a minimum standard. Principals may modify only to the extent that it is a higher standard.

The principal will notify the student's parent or guardian and have the student remedy the problem by changing clothes or removing/covering/reversing objectionable clothing, jewelry, tattoo, or head covering.  The student may be sent home to change clothes or have clothes brought to him.  When the problem has been corrected, the student will return to class after the principal has determined the disciplinary option to be administered.
