HIGH SCHOOL

AEF Schools requires a dress code for students.

We believe that a dress code:
 Fosters school spirit and community identity
 Helps the student develop pride in his or her appearance
 Prepares the student for the personal grooming requirements and accepted manner of dress of society in general
 Mitigates against the destructive and costly competition among students engendered by fads in dress and style
 Reduces clothing expenses for parents
 Helps to focus the student’s attention on schoolwork by using clothing to differentiate between school time and other leisure pursuits
* All clothing should be clearly marked with student’s name on the inside tag.
* Wearing an AEF sweater etc. does not exempt a student from wearing an AEF collared shirt
* Pants/shorts must be worn above the waist
* Solid colored T-shirts may be worn underneath the polo shirts
* Solid colored long sleeves may be worn underneath the polo shirts

Seniors and juniors at AEF High School have the opportunity to earn “Permanent Dress Down” after a set amount of time if the proper requirements are met.
To Earn “Dress Down” a student must:
Wear their school uniform every day with zero infractions:
~ Seniors: at the end of the first semester
~ Juniors: at the end of quarter 3
Must maintain a 2.3 GPA or higher in all classes as well as an 80% in organizational skills
Must have neat and tidy grooming at all times:
~ Hair brushed neatly and/or tied back
~ Fingernails cut to an acceptable length
~ Facial hair shaved or well groomed

Once a student has earned “Permanent Dress Down” they must maintain all of the above requirements along with the dress code listed, or this privilege will be removed for a minimum of two weeks.
Remember “Dress Down” is a privilege, not a right.
“Dress Down” Dress Code Requirements:
Shirts: Single color t-shirts, collared shirts, and appropriate shirts and blouses. Sleeveless shirts, tank tops, and graphic t-shirts are not permitted.

Pants: Pants / Jeans shall be worn so that the waistband is worn at the waist and not below the waist. Rips or tears are not permitted.
