Spruce Creek High School

Dress Code Policy

The School Board of Volusia County recently adopted a district-wide dress code. Beginning with the 2011-12 school year, the dress code applies to every student in a Volusia County public school. The dress code establishes minimal guidelines for the appearance and dress of students. Basic requirements follow; however, the complete guidelines can be found in Policy 217:

Head - No caps, visors, hoods, bandanas, sunglasses or other head gear, except with administrative permission.
Upper Garments- All garments must cover shoulder to shoulder. All garments must be long enough to clearly overlap the beltline or stay tucked. NO halter tops, tanks tops, spaghetti straps or muscle shirts.
Lower Garments- Undergarments and the buttocks MUST remain entirely covered even while seated. Dresses, skirts and shorts must be at least mid-thigh or below in length.
Footwear - Shoes must be safe and appropriate. No slippers or shoes with wheels are permitted on campus. Cleats may be worn for appropriate extracurricular sports in proper areas.
Accessories - Clothing, jewelry and accessories must not convey inappropriate messages.
