Dress Code

Clothing attire and conduct that is appropriate to the educational process will be expected and enforced at Columbine. Our dress code is designed to provide a safe and orderly learning environment.

Clothing may not disrupt the learning environment. A student’s dress and general appearance should not be so extreme that it draws undue attention to the student, nor should dress and appearance detract or interfere with the teaching and learning in the classroom.

No clothing will be allowed that defames, degrades or is offensive to a gender, race, color, religious creed, sexual orientation, national origin, ancestry, age, a physical or mental impairment or culture.

Clothing must not display any suggestive or objectionable material or advocate for unhealthy behavior, dangerous practice, or create a safety problem (includes no covering of the face by masks or hoods, as well as no graphics or text containing sexual connotations, alcohol, drugs, profanity, gang affiliations, or violence).

Appropriate, safe footwear must be worn at all times. Hats may be worn in the building, but CHS staff discretion may require the removal of hats at any time.

Dress Code Guidance in Jeffco

Responsibility for student dress and appearance generally rests with individual students and their families. Students may wish to express themselves by the manner of their dress and appearance; however, students shall not wear clothing or affect an appearance at school or school-sanctioned activities or events that is disruptive to the educational environment. Jeffco Public Schools standards on student attire are intended to help students focus on schoolwork, reduce discipline problems, and improve school order and safety.

Disciplinary action for violating the student dress code shall include notifying the student of the violation and requiring that the dress or appearance be corrected before the student reenters the classroom, school environment, or school-sanctioned activity or event. At the discretion of the building-level administrator, a family conference may be held. More serious consequences may result from repeated or serious violations.
