SYSTEM-WIDE DRESS CODE

The Catawba County Schools Board of Education enacted a system-wide Student Dress Code in 2000. This code is strictly enforced at Mill Creek. All guidelines will be addressed in the "Agenda"; however, as parents, you should keep the following information in mind.

1. Spaghetti straps, bare midriffs, and revealing tops will not be tolerated at Mill Creek.
    

2. Pants which sag, bag, or drag will not be tolerated at Mill Creek.
    

3. Facial painting which detracts from the learning of others will not be tolerated.
    

4. No hats, bandanas, kerchiefs or handing belts may be worn at any time -- even if it does match a student's ensemble.
    

5. Short shorts will not be tolerated. Keep in mind that your child has probably had a growth spurt since last year. Shorts should be fingertip length or longer.
    

6. Do not allow your child to wear bedroom slippers or pajamas to school unless a theme day has been approved and announced by the school.*
