If the principal determines that a student’s grooming or clothing violates the school’s dress code,
the student will be given an opportunity to correct the problem at school and return to the
classroom. If the problem cannot be corrected at school, the principal will work with the student
and parents to obtain an acceptable change of clothing for the student in a way that minimizes
loss of instructional time. Repeated or severe offenses may result in more serious disciplinary action in accordance with
the Student Code of Conduct.
