A Standardized Dress Code policy has been adopted by each elementary and middle school campus, with the consent of the Site-Based Committee. Traditional dress code will continue for all high school campuses. The principal of the school shall have the discretion to determine if a student’s attire, hair, and/or grooming is acceptable and does not cause a distraction within appropriate health and safety standards. Principals have the authority to modify the attire for special occasion days and events. Each student will display appropriate grooming and dress for the educational environment. Attire or hair styles which are deemed to be a distraction or disturbance to learning are prohibited. Students who violate the dress code will be subject to disciplinary action. Students assigned to Center for Success (CFS) will be required to wear navy blue, khaki or black slacks and a shirt issued by CFS.

    Unacceptable Hair and Grooming Unacceptable hair and/or grooming examples: facial hair (beards, mustaches), gang related, profane, vulgar language or gang symbols cut into hair, or tattooed or cut into the skin. Each campus, 6th through 12th grade, will determine how to address a student’s violation of the grooming code, in regard to facial hair. This campus decision will be communicated in writing to the parent of every school, with the students in grades 6th through 12th prior to the beginning of the school year. Student clubs, organizations, and extracurricular activities such as athletics, drill team, etc. may have their own policy about colored hair for their program.
