Dress Code

JCDB

Appearance does affect the learning atmosphere of a school.

Neatness, decency and good taste are emphasized as guidelines for the
understanding and interpretation of this dress code. The code is not intended to
work a financial hardship upon any student or family; neatness and good
taste are emphasized, not expensive clothing.
Universal dress code for school days and school activities
at the district's schools:
A. Appearance must be neat and clean.
1. Hair must be clean and well groomed.
2. Facial hair must be trimmed and maintained.
3. Clothing must not be unreasonably soiled or badly worn.
B. Decency and good taste are required.
1. Wearing apparel that is excessively short, excessively tight
and/or excessively low cut may not be worn.
2. Torn or cut clothing will not be allowed. No mesh clothing of
any kind will be acceptable unless worn over appropriate outer clothing.

beverages or tobacco products, illegal drugs, suggestive or obscene language or

circumstances

approved by the administrator, may not be worn in classrooms or hallways. They

will be kept in lockers except when entering or leaving the building.

shops, field trips, etc.), students in these classes must dress suitably for the
conditions as the instructor requires.
