Dress Code Reminder

Students are expected to come to school “dressed for work” and ready to learn.  With that in mind, the following tips should assist in transitioning from casual summer wear to appropriate school clothing:

  • Tank tops, (muscle shirts for boys) spaghetti straps, revealing necklines, halters, strapless, sheer or any other similar type of shirt are not permitted.  Great for the beach or gym but not for Gridley.
  • Clothing should cover the torso at all times.  Pants should be worn on the waist or hips.  No sagging.  Undergarments should not be visible.  Pajamas and slippers are only allowed on spirit days.  Pants with tears/rips that are too revealing are not appropriate.
  • Shorts and skirts should be longer than your middle finger when arms are extended at your sides. No short shorts or skirts, even with leggings underneath.
  • Clothing, accessories, or head gear which identify with illegal organizations, portray racial statements, contain profane or  suggestive language, advertise or advocate the use of tobacco, alcohol or illegal substances/activities are also not permitted.  Please avoid shirts with suggestive humor, innuendos or inappropriate graphics.
  • Sunglasses and hats are only worn outdoors, and bandanas of any color are not allowed at any time – on boys or girls.
  • School IDs are worn every day, everywhere on campus. 

 

The Gridley School Dress Code is in effect before, during and after school hours while on campus or at ANY school sponsored event on or off campus. It does not end when the school bell rings.

 

Thank you for your patience and support of our dress code. (WHEW!! )
