DRESS CODE from the Middle School Handbook

The following dress code is planned to have the students best exemplify the spirit and pride involved
in being part of their school. It is further designed to cause fewer distractions, thereby permitting the maximum learning for all students. The District prohibits pictures, emblems, or writings on clothing that are lewd, offensive, vulgar, or obscene or that depict or advertise tobacco products, alcoholic beverages of any kind, drugs, or any other substance prohibited under policy FNCA(L); further it
prohibits any dress or grooming that, in the principal's judgment, may reasonably be expected to interfere with normal school operations.
