Quick Reference Guide on GEMS Dress Code



DRESS CODE

The Global Experience Magnet School has a mandatory school uniform policy. Students must adhere to this policy whenever they are in the building, in order to participate in classes or other school related activities. One aspect of functioning as a GEMS team is having a similar appearance through our school uniform. It is through this team effort and PRIDE that GEMS students experience a greater sense of school identity, belonging, and promote academic excellence. 

Uniforms that meet the below-listed guidelines may not be altered. Students wearing altered uniform clothing or otherwise, fail to adhere to these guidelines will be considered out of uniform and may be subject to disciplinary action. Similarly, additional items may not be added to the uniform. This includes, but is not limited to, sweaters around the waist, hats hung on belts or around the neck, etc. A student wearing additional items may also be subject to disciplinary action. A lack of clean clothes, the inability to do laundry, or leaving school early are not acceptable excuses for being out of uniform. 

Students who violate the uniform policy will receive a discipline referral and be subject to earning discipline behavior points. Violations of the uniform policy include wearing non-uniform items, wearing outerwear or not having on the appropriate uniform items. Students will receive one discipline behavior point per incident with a teacher. Students will no longer be allowed to borrow uniform pieces in order to attend school activities (including class). Students will be assigned an in-school suspension (ISS) as long as he/she is out of uniform. If a parent is able to bring appropriate uniform pieces, the student that is out of uniform will be allowed to return to class and rejoin the school.
