DRESS AND GROOMING
The district's dress code is established to teach grooming and hygiene, prevent disruption,
and minimize safety hazards. Students and parents may determine a student's personal
dress and grooming standards, provided that they comply with the following:
Borden County’s students shall be dressed and groomed in a manner that is clean and
neat and that will not be a health and safety hazard to themselves or others. Clothing and
grooming that in the principal's judgment may reasonably be expected to cause disruption
of or interference with normal school operation is prohibited.
The Borden County School prohibits pictures, emblems, or writing on clothing that
1.
Is lewd, offensive, vulgar, or contains obscene language
2.
Advertises or depicts tobacco products, alcoholic beverages, drugs, or any
other substance prohibited by the school
3.
Refers to satanic, cult, prison wear or gang activities
The following guidelines will be used to determine appropriate dress:
1.
Dresses, skirts, split skirts and shorts should not be shorter than two inches
above the knee. A student will lose the privilege of wearing shorts for the
school year upon a third offense. Parents will be notified when the second
offense occurs. Shorts must be tailored (hemmed with no frayed edges). No
spandex biker shorts or wind shorts are allowed (loose-legged, athletic running
shorts) and shorts shall not be too tight.
2.
Wearing of oversized or baggy pants and/or jeans is prohibited at school or at
any school-sponsored activity on or off campus. No “saggin, baggin, or
draggin.” Pants must be an appropriate length and not drag the floor. Boys’
pants will be worn at the waist and properly fit the waistline. No excessively
wide legged pants will be allowed. No trench coats, dusters, jail attire or para-
military attire will be allowed. No chains will be allowed on school property or
at school-sponsored functions.
3.
Shirts and blouses must be buttoned appropriately with midriff and back
covered at all times. (Tops must be long enough that skin does not show when
arms are lifted.) Clothing shall be designed, constructed, and worn in a manner
that is not suggestive or indecent, and that shall promote proper decorum. The
opening on any type of shirt shall not exceed the equivalent of the first button
below the collar of a dress shirt.
Tank tops and “see-through chiffon blouses” will not be allowed unless they
are worn with a crew neck T-shirt underneath it or a shirt worn over them
during all school hours and activities. Tailored shirttails must be tucked in
