Back to School: Dress Code Reminders

As a reminder to students and families, Caroline has a dress code policy which applies to students on school property, at school-sponsored activities, and events away from school. Our goal is to create and maintain a positive and safe learning environment where all students are comfortable and respectful of themselves and others. 

With elementary students, parents’ good judgment is essential regarding what children should wear to school. Clothes should be safe, not disturb or distract other students, and be appropriate for outside weather conditions and the school setting.  

Basics for Students at All Grade Levels

Clothing and other attire cannot promote or symbolize:

  • Alcohol, tobacco, cannabis or other drugs
  • Profanity, obscenity, or vulgarity
  • Violence, hate or discrimination
  • Nudity or pornographic images or sentiments
  • Illegal activity 
Clothing should appropriately cover private areas of the body: 

  • Frayed items, appropriate length shorts and leggings are acceptable. 
  • Tank or tube tops, shirts that do not cover the midriff, see-through clothing items, and spaghetti straps worn without a covering shirt are not appropriate for the school setting. 
  • Pants and shorts must be fastened at the natural waistline. 
  • Chains attached to clothing are not permitted.
  • Heavy coats and all head coverings should remain in lockers or the closet area during the school day. 
  • Head coverings for religious reasons or medical reasons are appropriate with advance approval from administration.

Administration at each school will ensure students are following the dress code policy.
