SDoL middle schools will pilot a relaxed dress code for the 2021-22 school year. Students in grades 6-8 at Jackson, Lincoln, Martin, Reynolds and Wheatland Middle School will not be required to wear school uniforms. This approach is intended to increase individuality and creativity, while easing uniform requirements for our middle school families.
Students’ dress must follow Board Policy 221 which is outlined in the Standards and Expectation for Students handbook (English) (Spanish), beginning on page 16. For the 2021-2022 school year, the middle school dress code requirements will align with the policy already in place for grades 9-12. School uniforms will still be required for elementary school students this school year.
Please refer to the diagram for additional dress code guidance. Parents and guardians are responsible for student compliance with the school’s dress code, and students are responsible for knowing and for complying with the dress code during school hours and school activities.
