Bishop Hartley Dress Code Guidelines: School Year 2010-11 Based Upon Revised Code Dated 04 May 09
Back to Bishop Hartley HOME Page
The purpose of a dress code is to maximize identity with Bishop Hartley High School. The code is adopted to minimize certain influences that distract from the purpose of school, to forestall competition among students, and to equalize regulations for young men and women. Students are expected to be neat and well-groomed, and to wear uniform attire in a manner consistent with good taste, decency, and size appropriate. The interpretation of the code is left to the discretion of the administration. This page has been updated on 10 May 2010 to prepare for the 2010-11 School Year.
