Dress Code

GUIDELINES: Preserving a beneficial learning environment and assuring the safety and well-being of all students are primary concerns of the school district and staff. Quincy High School students are expected to come to school in attire that demonstrates that they are READY, RESPONSIBLE, and RESPECTFUL.

RESPONSIBILITIES:  Parents have responsibility for seeing that their students are appropriately dressed for school.  As such, student choices in matters of dress should be made in consultation with their parents and be consistent with the Quincy Way – Ready, Responsible, and Respectful. School personnel have the responsibility for maintaining and enforcing an appropriate dress code that is conducive to learning. School administration is the final authority in determining the appropriateness of dress.

EXPECTATIONS:
BE READY
  • Wear clothing that is suitable for all classroom activities
  • Always wear appropriate footwear.
BE RESPONSIBLE
  • Wear clothing and accessories that are completely free from advertising, displays, or suggestions of drugs, alcohol, sex, profanity, discrimination, or violence.
  • Wear clothing that is free of gang associations. 
BE RESPECTFUL
  • Wear clothing that keeps private areas fully covered.
CONSEQUENCES:
If unable to resolve the dress code violation in the classroom, students will be sent to the office and provided clothing that meets the dress code or a parent/guardian will be contacted to have clothing brought to them. Repeated dress code violations will result in a major referral.
