Student Dress Code

 

Heights High School Dress Code 

The leadership and SDMC at Heights High School respects students’ desire to express themselves in the  way they dress. All students are also expected to respect the school community by dressing in a manner  appropriate for a school environment. The leadership team at Heights also believes that students and  their parents or guardians are primarily responsible for students’ attire. Student attire should facilitate  participation in learning as well as the health and safety of students and the adults who supervise them.
