Dress Code

Parents and staff at Kennebecasis Valley High School believe that academic competency alone is not sufficient to ensure success, both in school and after graduation. Knowledge regarding dress that is appropriate in business and in social situations is important.

creates a safety hazard
distracts from learning
disrupts any school activity

dresses and shorts which are shorter than mid-thigh
tops which do not cover from shoulder to waist: i.e. tops and bottoms must meet
body piercing that creates a safety hazard

clothing with profanity or suggestive words or images
any attire which is extremely low cut or which exposes undergarments
transparent tops unless worn over another top
all headwear is to be removed upon entry to the building

Responsibilities
Parents share the responsibility of seeing that students are dressed properly for school. School personnel have the responsibility for maintaining and enforcing an appropriate dress code that is conducive to learning.
