2007 – 2008
REVISED 8/7/07

Clifton Middle School is charged with the responsibility of maintaining an atmosphere conducive to learning. Dress should never distract from school activities or prove a hazard to the student’s safety or the safety of others. Since it is impractical to list every possibility of dress and grooming, final decisions concerning acceptable dress are left to a building administrator. Any form of dress that attracts undue attention, disrupts school, or detracts from the learning process, is not acceptable.
