Dress Code
A student’s clothing should be comfortable, suitable to the weather, and allow for maximum learning. Clothing which is not socially appropriate will make it more difficult for the students to adjust to school and enjoy the classroom learning environment. Students should wear shoes that allow for safe play at outside time and PE class. Shoes with cleats or wheels damage the floors and are not allowed at school. Hats, bandannas, sweatbands, and hoodies on the head may not be worn in the building. Parents are asked to use good judgment in dressing students for school. Students in grades K-5 are allowed to wear shorts, which are appropriate in length.
The wearing of tank tops, tube tops, halters, short shorts, ripped jeans exposing too much skin etc. is not appropriate for school. All shirts need to completely cover the midriff. No style of clothing or the manner in which it is worn may expose undergarments. Additional information about Student Dress is included in the GCPS Parent/Student Handbook.
