Student Uniform Policy
Purpose
A student’s appearance, including dress and hygiene, must not disrupt the educational process or compromise standards of health and safety. The EMSA uniform policy is in effect anytime students are in the school building and at most school functions. Faculty and staff strictly enforce the student uniform policy. EMSA does not prohibit hairstyles historically associated with race, ethnicity, or hair texture, including, but not limited to, protective hairstyles such as braids, locks, and twists. A student not in full EMSA uniform or in a uniform that disrupts the educational process or compromises standards of health and safety can be subject to:
-
Receiving warnings
-
Placed in silent study hall until dress code is corrected
-
Sent home if dress code is not correctable
*EMSA and EMSA staff will not provide uniform “loaners” or replacement.
