Mandatory School Dress Code Policy for Students

Dear Parents and Guardians:

After your request and by a majority vote, Capitol Heights ES has adopted a Mandatory School Dress Code Policy which started on the first day of school, in August, 2002.  As a result of this action, all students are expected to comply with this dress code during school and school-related activities. 

This UNIFORM POLICY will be enforced this year.  If you opt not to have your child/ren wear uniforms, your only recourse is to select another school.

In an effort to be certain that all students and parents are aware of this dress code, our school wants to share it with you.  Please review the following Student Dress Code carefully with your child/children to assure that they too are aware of its contents:

Solid white collared shirts, i.e., polo shirts, turtle neck shirts, or dress shirts with either long or short sleeves.
