considered so. Tights, leggings, and jeggings must be worn with appropriate length
shirts/tops that cover the student’s front private area and rear end. Short shorts, boxer shorts,

during the school day and/or extracurricular practice or event. No stickers or body

Hair should be kept cleaned and groomed. Hair should not extend past the top of the
shoulder for male students. The styling or grooming should keep the hair out of the eyes.
Good health and personal hygiene habits should be practiced with regards to hair and
body odors. Hair should be neat. Hair rollers, or long handled combs may not be worn in the
hair.
It is prohibited to dye or color hair in hues that do not occur in natural hair and it is the student’s
responsibility to recolor it in spite of damage it may cause to the hair. The school accepts no
responsibility for this. If there is a doubt whether or not to color one’s hair a particular color, the
best practice is for the student to refrain from doing so.
