High School Parents,
Please remind your students about our school dress code. While education is our focus, we need students to be clean and covered and we want to minimize distractions to others. Our goal is prepare students for professional dress in the workplace. Please make sure your students shirts have sleeves. That skirts and shorts are fingertip length, and that your student does not wear facial piercings or nose rings to school. Thank you.
