Please bear in mind that as we approach the month of June, warmer weather inclines many of our students to dress for the beach or pool rather than for school. Please help your student make attire choices for school in alignment with our dress code.
See the dress code below:
Dress Code
Students are expected to wear clothing that is safe and conducive to creating and supporting an optimal learning environment. Because no dress code is all inclusive, the administration makes the final determination in deciding the appropriateness of student attire.
At CHS, we expect all students and staff to dress appropriately for the educational and professional community we are.
Students are not permitted to wear:
1.Clothing with offensive messages that reference sex, violence, weapons, drugs, alcohol, gang affiliations, race, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, gender, etc.
2.Pants that sag below the natural waistline. Underwear must not be visible.
3.Clothing that is unduly revealing or skin tight.
All tops should have straps
Cleavage and midriffs should not be visible.
Skirts, shorts, dresses, etc. should cover skin as appropriate for a school and professional setting.
4.See-through clothing
5.Shoes that increase the likelihood of accidents and injury.
6.Sunshades or any dark glasses unless they are prescribed for medical reasons and a doctor’s note is on file in the medical office.
7.Chains or jewelry with sharp projections.
8.Headgear including hats, visors, scarves and do-rags while in classrooms, library, labs, gyms, offices or other instructional settings. In instances where students wear headgear for religious reasons, a letter from a parent requesting exception to policy must be presented to the appropriate dean at the beginning of the school year.
Students who violate this dress code will be asked to change their clothing and then return to learning. Parents will be notified when this occurs for assistance.
Students may be subject to other consequences as outlined in the school conduct guidelines.

Is any of this too restrictive?
No high heels, eh?

ReplyDeleteNo, going to school is their job. Just as adults have to dress appropriately for our jobs, they can deal with it and dress however they like outside of school/office. The school works smoother if they don't have to deal with envy, theft, high heel injury, etc. Some kids are distracted, which is why stripper-wear is not welcome in most work places.
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear all views. Thanks for reading!
