Dress Code

Students will dress in a manner that reflects positively on themselves, their homes, and Bell Junior High School. Just as adults must conform to workplace standards, so must students. Clothing must be clean and in good repair. Shoes must have a closed heel and toe and must be worn at all times. (Slippers and "flip-flops" are not permitted.) Students must dress in a manner that is not offensive or disruptive to the educational setting.

Unacceptable dress includes the following:

1.       Any clothing with body parts or undergarments inappropriately exposed

2.       Apparel or garments displaying logos of gangs, racist groups, obscene language, vulgar gestures, racist, ethnic or sexist slurs, altered or customized lettering, graffiti or gang colors

3.       Apparel or garments advertising alcohol, tobacco or drugs

4.       Do-rags and bandanas

5.       Hats and sunglasses may not be worn in buildings as a matter of courtesy and good manners. Hats (with brims; beanies; and skullcaps) will be permitted outside only if they do not lead to disruptive or intimidating behavior

Consequences: A parent contact and/or a change of clothing are required. Continuous defiance of the dress code will result in a referral, suspension, or lowered citizenship. Evidence of gang affiliation on campus will lead to suspension and/or transfer.
