Appropriate Clothing

As the days get warmer, we start having questions as to appropriate dress for students. These items of clothing are inappropriate: saggy tank top shirts, halter tops, tops with spaghetti straps, tube tops, belly shirts, and excessively short shorts. If your daughter wears low cut pants, be sure she wears an appropriate shirt that covers her midriff, especially when sitting.
