The purpose of the dress code is to allow students to be to engage in school feeling comfortable while also maintaining an appropriate level of professionalism.

Students are to keep the main portion of their body covered at all times while at school. Since there are many varieties of body types, there is no perfect way to define this explicitly in words. This may be described as from the top of the torso to midthigh.

Dress code will be monitored each morning by teachers and/or any staff member that recognizes a student is out of dress code. Teachers/Staff will monitor throughout the day and correct students any time a violation is observed. This dress code was developed with a concern for modesty, safety, and the general good order of the school.

• Any text or imagery on the clothing must adhere to the school expectations for appropriate content. Clothes that have words or saying that are profane, sexually suggestive or that promote drugs, tobacco, alcohol, violence, racism, or sexism are prohibited. Sleepwear or pajamas are not permitted as school attire and should not be worn to school. Blankets are not permitted at school due to safety reasons.
• Crop tops are not permitted. All students must have entire torsos covered.
