DRESS STANDARDS

Students should come to school properly dressed for learning. What a person wears frequently influences the person’s behavior. Clothing should be clean and in good repair.

We would like all students to comply with the Alpine School District Personal Grooming Standards. The following is the Standards of Dress and Grooming:

• Hair should be clean and well groomed. Hairstyles distracting in appearance or needing constant attention are not acceptable.
• All students are required to wear appropriate footwear to school. Footwear must not mark or damage floors.
• Clothing which is ragged, tattered, or deliberately distracting in appearance must be avoided. Short shorts, very short skirts, halters, bare midriffs, cutoffs, and jeans of a “grubby” type are not acceptable. Vulgar words, profane or obscene slogans and pictures or advertisements for alcohol, tobacco, and drugs on clothing will not be tolerated.
• Head wear should not be worn in the building. This includes boys and girls. Students may wear ball caps outside during recess, during other outside activities and on certain designated days. We would appreciate your support with this policy.

PLEASE NOTE: IF THE ITEM OF CLOTHING IS QUESTIONABLE BEFORE THE STUDENT LEAVES HOME FOR SCHOOL, IT IS PROBABLY GOING TO BE QUESTIONABLE WHEN THE STUDENT ARRIVES. WE WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT IN THIS MATTER.
