    On occasion students are permitted to have out of uniform days (“Dress Down” or “Dress Up” days), but must be dressed neatly and in a manner that is appropriate for school.No apparel may be worn that administrators judge to be too revealing and that distract from the educational environment, including ripped or torn jeans and cropped or halter shirts or tops. Furthermore, any clothing that denotes gang affiliations is inappropriate for a school setting. Out of uniform days are not at the discretion of students, but will be announced by a school administrator.
