Discouraging students from wearing pajamas to class, and dressing in business casual attire or uniforms are among recommendations Dysart Unified School District governing board members offered to tighten up a loose dress code policy.
Following a timeline beginning with a proposal, feedback from meetings and surveys in the fall of 1998 to the board approving Kingswood Elementary School’s uniform policy in the spring of 1999, board members received a detailed history at the July 27 board meeting about how the blueprint was set for other schools to institute their own uniform policies.
A discussion based on if there should be stricter district-wide standards for what is considered acceptable dress, or if students should wear uniforms, classroom time spent on enforcing a dress code and disciplining any code violations were addressed by Craig Mussi, assistant superintendent of Support Services.
