精东传媒 S-UNI: School Uniforms
With the approval of the Superintendent, schools may implement plans in which students are required to wear uniforms at school during the regular school day. The purpose of such programs is to allow students to focus on instructional objectives of the school, favorably impact student attitude, promote harmony among students, increase safety, and enhance the image of the schools. Uniform plans adopted by schools shall not prohibit students from wearing particular attire that is part of their religious practice or from wearing or displaying items that do not contribute to disruption or interfere with discipline or the rights of others. Additionally, students must have the right to dress in accordance with their gender identity, within the constraints of the school uniform requirements adopted by the school.
The Superintendent is directed to develop regulations to implement this policy, which shall include details of how schools are to develop uniform plans, guidelines for permissible types of uniforms, and the process by which such plans shall be approved by the Superintendent.
