Dress Code Guidelines

The major responsibility for student dress lies with the parents/guardians. In order to give guidance to Rockwood Valley parents/guardians and students, the following guidelines have been established. Additional guidelines may be imposed in situations where the learning environment or student safety is impacted. When in doubt about clothing, parents/guardians or students are encouraged to check with an administrator before the garment in question is worn to school.

Body/Face Painting: Students are not permitted to paint their body or face.

Clothing with Slogans/Pictures: Clothing that displays slogans or pictures which are obscene or suggestive are not permitted. Any item that carries a slogan/picture representing alcoholic beverages, tobacco and/or its products, narcotics, profane language, violence, sex, hate groups or weapons is prohibited.
