Dress Standards

Alpine District Board Policy (Policy 5152) states:

"Clothing which is ragged, tattered or deliberately distracting in appearance must be avoided. Short shorts, tank tops, very short skirts, halters, bare midriffs, cutoffs and jeans of a "grubby" type are not acceptable. Thongs or open shoes are not appropriate. Vulgar words, profane or obscene slogans and pictures of advertisements for alcohol, tobacco and drugs on clothing will not be tolerated."

For the purpose of having a standard of measurement, the decision was made to have shorts and dresses extend beyond fingertips when standing with arms extended. Sleeveless tops, bikers shorts and "fish net" shirts must be avoided. If a student is in violation of these standards, we will have the student call home for a change of clothing.
