DRESS CODE The school is an educational environment designed to prepare young people to be leaders in our world. We expect that students learn to dress for specific purposes and situations. Students are asked to dress in a manner that reflects a respectful attitude toward learning, including covering their undergarments. Parents and students are asked to cooperate in implementing a dress code. Manning staff reserves the right to deem an article of clothing as inappropriate for the learning environment. The Basics Clothing must fully cover undergarments, the chest, midriff, and buttocks. Shorts must provide full coverage of the rear, and pants may not sag. Tops must have straps that are at least ½ inch wide. Spaghetti-strap tops, tube tops, and halter tops are not permitted. Tank tops that sit securely on the shoulders are permitted. Graphics & Logos Clothing may not display alcohol (including brewery logos), tobacco, drugs, profanity, or violent imagery. Headwear & Accessories Hats and hoods must be removed inside the building so that students’ faces remain clearly visible. Religious headwear is always welcome. Our goal is simple: Dress in a way that supports a safe, respectful, and focused learning environment for everyone. **ANY Manning Staff member may “dress code” a student and send them to the office for a change of clothes or to call parents if they refuse.. |
Dress Code Guidance in Jeffco
Responsibility for student dress and appearance generally rests with individual students and their families. Students may wish to express themselves by the manner of their dress and appearance; however, students shall not wear clothing or affect an appearance at school or school-sanctioned activities or events that is disruptive to the educational environment. Jeffco Public Schools standards on student attire are intended to help students focus on schoolwork, reduce discipline problems, and improve school order and safety.
Disciplinary action for violating the student dress code shall include notifying the student of the violation and requiring that the dress or appearance be corrected before the student reenters the classroom, school environment, or school-sanctioned activity or event. At the discretion of the building-level administrator, a family conference may be held. More serious consequences may result from repeated or serious violations.
