STUDENT CONDUCT
7312 STUDENT DRESS CODE


The responsibility for student dress and general appearance shall rest with individual students and parents. However, the Board of Education requires students to attend school in appropriate dress that meets health and safety standards and does not interfere with the learning process. The Board also requests students to wear appropriate protective gear in certain classes (for example, family and consumer science, technology, physical education). In addition, the Board prohibits attire bearing an expression or insignia which is obscene or libelous or which advocates racial, religious or gender prejudice, or which is likely to cause a material disruption or interference with teaching or the orderly operation and discipline of the school or school activities. The dress code should be viewed as an opportunity to foster equity through the district’s efforts with culturally responsive and sustaining education.

The Superintendent of Schools and other designated administrative personnel shall have the authority to require a student to change his/her attire should it be deemed inappropriate according to the above guidelines.
