All students are expected to be neatly groomed. Because a relationship between one’s appearance and behavior does exist, attire for students must be reasonable and in such a style as it will not cause distraction from the educational process or create an unsafe, threatening environment. The responsibility of upholding and enforcing this code rests with those students, parents/guardians, teachers, and principals concerned. Where there is a judgment to be made, the principal will make the decision in accordance with the student/parent handbook policy, as approved annually by the School Board.
