STUDENT DRESS CODE
The following item was taken from the Student Code adopted by the School Board:
D. Dress
The Board of Education expects student dress and grooming to reflect high standards of personal conduct so that each student's attire promotes a positive, safe and healthy atmosphere within the school. Student dress may not present a health or safety hazard, violate municiple or state law or present a potential for disruption of the instructional program. Attire or accessories, which advertise, display or promote any drug, including alcohol or tobacco, sexual activity, violence, disrespect and/or bigotry towards any group are not acceptable. Unacceptable clothing and accessories include, but are not limited to, gang related attire, excessively tight or revealing clothes, short shorts, bare midriff, low-cut, and/or off the shoulder blouses, spiked jewelry, chains, and belts with mroe than 2 inches excess. "Sagging" or wearing of pants below the waist and or in a manner that allows underwear and/or bare skin to show, and "Bagging" or wearing ofexcessively baggy pants with low hanging crotches are prohibited. As a matter of common courtesy and respect, hats/cpas are not worn while inside building except when there are specific instructions, safety, religious or medical reasons.
Schools may customize their individual dress codes to address the needs and standard of their communities and neighborhoods through the use of a process shich ensures input from the students, faculty and staff of the school and other interested community members. Students and their parents/guardians have the responsibility to be aware of school specfific dress codes and to conform to those requirements. The responsibility to interpret and enforce the policy rests with each principal for his/her school.
NOTE: Students are not allowed to wear roller-skate shoes or "spaghetti strap" tops to Arroyo Del Oso.
