2007-08 Dress Code Requirements
The Board of Trustees for the
Brazosport Independent School District recently adopted the 2007-2008
Student Code of Conduct. The purpose of this document is to provide
information and direction to the students/parents regarding standards
of behavior as well as consequences of misconduct. These
standards/rules are established to achieve and maintain order/safety
in the Brazosport schools.
In preparation for the upcoming school year, dress code plays an
important role when selecting clothes for your child. Included below
is a section from the district’s Student Code of Conduct which may aid
in this process.
All students are expected to dress
in a manner that is generally accepted in the community as appropriate
for the age of the child and for the activities in which he/she
participates
 |
Hats, caps, headbands, or
bandanas are not to be worn during the instructional day. |
|
Clothing shall be of appropriate
size, length, and fitting to cover undergarments when the student is
standing, sitting, stooping, or bending as interpreted by the campus
administration. “Appropriate length” of shorts/skirts/dresses means
2.5 inches between the bottom of the apparel and the top of the
knee. Pants should FIT the waist area and should not be oversized,
sagged or have holes. |
|
No uncovered halters, tank tops,
strapless tops, spaghetti tops, see-through garments, bare midriff,
or bare tops may be worn. |
|
Form-fitting, stretch clothing
such as biking shorts, body suits, leotards, tights, legging, etc.,
shall not be worn except when worn appropriately as an undergarment
beneath clothing. These are permitted to be worn as appropriate for
physical education and extra-curricular school sponsored/approved
activities. |
|
Boy’s shirt tails must be tucked
in. |
| Clothing/accessories with inappropriate writing,
inappropriate drawings/pictures, or inappropriate advertisements, to
include but not limited to drugs, alcohol, tobacco, violence, prison
activities, gang activities, sexual innuendoes, cultural
divisiveness and/or racial intolerance may not be worn. |
|
Visible tattoos are not allowed.
Any tattoo, artificial design or adornment not hidden must be
removed or completely covered. |
| No grills are permitted. |
| Earrings may be worn only by
female students. No other visible body piercing adornment is allowed. |
|
Hair length for boys, in a free
fall manner, may extend to the eyebrows in front, to the bottom of
the ear, or to the bottom of a standard shirt collar. Boys’ hair
length should not extend further than 2 inches from the scalp (i.e.
afro, spiked, etc.), and other unusual styling (i.e. streaking
colors, designs, or other “exotic” appearances) is not permitted.
Boys may not wear ponytails. |
|
Facial hair (beards, mustaches,
etc.) are not permitted. Sideburns may not extend below the bottom
of the ear or be extreme. |
|
The District prohibits the
presence of any apparel, jewelry, accessory, notebook, or manner of
grooming which denotes membership in gangs. |
|
Any grooming or dress fad that
the principal determines materially or substantially detracts from
or interferes with the educational program and/or creates a health
or hazard to the student’s safety or others, may be prohibited. |
|
Individual student backpacks are
required to be clear, mesh or see-through. |
