Dress Code for School and School Sponsored Activities

To maintain a setting that is most conducive to the educational process, it is necessary to establish minimum standards for dress.  Students are expected to dress in a manner that is appropriate for school and school activities. If you arrive to school or school activity inappropriately dressed, you will be assigned ISP.  If you are unsure about your attire do not wear it.
