Dress Code

Students’ attitudes are affected by the clothing they wear. Neatness and cleanliness are normally indicators of good behavior. According to Hamilton County School policy, clothing, accessories, or grooming that is or may become potentially disruptive to the classroom atmosphere or educational process shall not be permitted. (In our opinion, tank tops, bare midriffs, and shorts that do not fall below one’s fingertips when arms are extended next to the legs, are not appropriate for school wear). Some advertising, words, pictures, and phrases on clothing are also not appropriate and students may be asked to turn the shirt inside out or a parent may be called to bring a replacement shirt.

Clogs and shoes with high heels are unsafe and inappropriate for school. According to Hamilton County policy, no caps and or hats shall be worn at school. If, at the discretion of the staff, a child comes to school inappropriately dressed, the parent will be called to bring a change of clothes.
