Picture Day Reminders

Dear Parents,

This is a friendly reminder that tomorrow is Picture Day at Creswell. Please encourage your child to dress his or her best! The general requirements of the dress code always apply, but the more specific standard school attire does not.

Here are the general requirements students need to follow tomorrow:

General

• Students will wear clothing of appropriate size. Appropriate sizes are defined as no more than one size smaller or one size larger than the student’s actual clothing size. There has been some confusion in the past because vendors are selling clothing that has a particular size on it, but the pants are way too tight or too saggy. To help with that, clothing must not be tight up against the skin. There should be a “flow” to the clothing that shows the clothes are large enough to fit properly. Pants, shorts, capri pants, skorts or skirts must fit at the waist and must not sag. Pants made of stretch material, such as rayon or lycra, are not allowed.

• All clothing must be hemmed. No drawstrings, cut-offs or rolled-up cuffs are allowed on pants, capri pants, shorts or skirts.

• Torn clothing or see-through clothing is prohibited. This includes blouses or dresses made of chiffon, rayon, or any other see-through material.

• Clothing that advertises substances that are illegal for teens (drugs, alcohol, tobacco products) or language or writing that is otherwise inappropriate or offensive (sex, profanity, racial or ethnic slurs, gang related attire, etc.) may not be worn.

• Tattoos that display drugs, alcohol or tobacco products, or gang- or sex-related words or images must not be seen at any time.


• Chains, spiked accessories and belt buckles with concealed weapons are not permissible. Belts may not hang down as a “tail” from the belt loop.
