Spring is here! The New Tech Elevated Dress Code continues:
“Any students not in compliance with this dress code will be asked to change their clothing or contact their parents to recieve a change of clothing, or students will be sent home. Please be advised that failure to comply with this policy may result in disciplinary action up to suspension.”
The following articles of clothing represent violation of YNT and District Dress Code and are not permitted. Students wearing any of the following will result in administrative intervention and/or disciplinary action:
• Muscle shirts, tank tops, A-frames (“beaters”), tank top dresses, T-shirts with spaghetti straps or straps less
than three inches in width
