DRESS CODE
 
Lincoln Park High School students are expected to show good judgment by dressing appropriately for school. They should dress in a manner that is not disruptive to the learning environment and that does not endanger their safety or that of others.
 
Students who refuse to modify their attire will be sent to the discipline office and parents will be contacted to bring appropriate clothing. Repeated lack of cooperation will result in detention or other disciplinary action.
 
NOT PERMITTED ARE:
  • Head coverings (including but not limited to caps, du-rags, scarves, hoods- including hooded sweatshirts, and headbands). This rule applies to both male and female students. Head coverings are to be kept in the student’s locker throughout the entire school day.
  • Tank tops, tube tops, tops with spaghetti straps, tops that show any midriff, are off-the-shoulder, or have plunging necklines, open shirts showing bare skin, and excessively tight clothing.
  • Abbreviated shorts or skirts that are shorter than mid-thigh. Short or skirt material must extend past the student’s fingertips when standing. Pants that are sagging and show underwear are not permitted.
  • Spandex clothing of any type (leggings or tights worn with a covering that does not meet the skirt length requirement are not permitted)
  • Clothing with obscene material or profanity.
  • Signs, symbols, jewelry (including earrings), colors and the manner in which the clothing is worn signifying gang affiliations (e.g. caps worn outside the building on school grounds must have the bill pointing forward; emblems on headbands may not be to one side).
  • Outerwear, such as jackets, and sunglasses may not be worn in the classroom.
