School Uniforms & Dress Code
-
The Christina School District Dress Code is a set of guidelines that outline the standards for student attire while attending school. The goal of this protocol is to promote a sense of community, reduce distractions, and create a more focused learning environment. Students shall dress in clothes that promote a safe and respectful learning environment, in alignment with the Christina School District Student Manual.
Enforcement
- Teachers and staff will monitor student adherence to the Student Dress Code expectations.
- Students found in violation of the policy will be reminded of the Dress Code expectations and may be given the opportunity to correct the violation.
- Repeated violations may result in disciplinary action as outlined in the Christina School District Student Manual.
Uniform Dress Code
All Christina School District (CSD) middle schools and select elementary schools participate in the school uniform program. The decision to implement a uniform code is about equity and high standards of achievement. In order for our students to reach the high standards we have set for them, we must create environments where they receive challenging instruction, and are held accountable for their dress, behavior, and personal success.
In many public school districts where uniform dress codes have been established, school officials have found that school uniforms:
- enhance school safety
- improve the learning environment
- bridged socioeconomic differences between children
- promoted good behavior
- improved children's self-respect and self-esteem
- produced cost savings for participating families
Please note: If necessary, we will provide sensory-friendly options for our students.
