SY 24-25 WFHS Uniforms

Published on: 7/28/2024

​​​​

​​​With the understanding that a student's behavior is influenced by the way the student is dressed and with the understanding that no student should dress in a manner​​ that is disruptive or has an adverse effect on school activities, the following mandatory uniform standards for student attire have been developed.  Students are expected to dress in the school uniform during the school day and during school related activities. The school principal/site administrator will make the final determination of whether a student's attire or appearance conflicts with these standards. The school will loan uniforms to students from the school uniform closet when necessary. Students in violation of the dress code regulations will be administered appropriate consequences for dress code violations.


All students (except those deemed exempt) must adhere to the following dress code:
​​

Tops

Tops must be solid hunter green, white, or black and may be polo-style shirts, collared blouses or turtlenecks. Shirts may have the school insignia, if one is available, but no other ornamentation is permitted. Tops must not expose any of the midriff or lower back. Fishnet tops, halter tops, tube tops, strapless tops, tanks tops, spaghetti straps and other forms of transparent or revealing clothing are prohibited and should not be visible at any time. Oversized tops may not be worn.  School Spirit t-shirts may be worn on Wednesdays with uniform bottoms.​
