Syracuse Arts Academy believes that a mandatory school dress code policy will provide a more secure school environment, promote an atmosphere for greater discipline, and increase learning opportunities for students by removing many of the distractions and connotations associated with various types of clothing.
All students are required to follow the dress code policy. Parents are responsible for ensuring that their children wear the designated school clothing as outlined below.
On Dollar Dress days and other specified occasions this dress code will be used. Students are still expected to dress in a manner that positively impacts the learning environment. Clothing must be modest, tasteful, and not compromise safety standards for our students. Students may wear clothing of their choice as long as they are within the guidelines below.
The following clothing will not be permitted:
Please adhere to the Dress & Grooming Standards and other rules listed in this Dress Code Policy.
On game days, students who are eligible to participate in the sports activity can wear Best Dress. Some dances will also be best dress. Students are expected to dress up in professional dress, like they are going to a job interview. Boys should wear suit pants or slacks, with a dress shirt and tie. Girls should wear a dress, skirt, or dress pants and a blouse.
Dress that may be construed as inappropriate under this policy includes, but is not limited to:
A Note on Dance Behavior: Students that exhibit any behavior that is inappropriate or may potentially harm themselves or any student around them may be removed from the dance. Behavior that is considered inappropriate under this policy includes, but is not limited to: vulgar, seductive, or inappropriate movements; “freaking”, freak dancing, grinding; “moshing”, dancing in a “mosh pit”; slamming, where students are violently pushing or shoving others; crowd surfing, passing students overhead or through the crowd and running through or around the dance area etc.
This policy is intended to create a framework to meet the purpose as stated at the beginning of this policy. As styles change, or if questions arise, the school administration, as the Board of Directors’ designee, has the authority to determine if a student’s dress is in keeping with this policy.
