Uniform Dress Code

Bill Roberts School strives to create an environment that is academic, safe and respectful for all students with the focus clearly on learning.  In order to strongly encourage this environment, Roberts has established a school-wide uniform dress code to indicate the student’s desire for success. All students will dress in the required attire from the start of the school day until the end of the school day. It is the parent/guardian‘s responsibility to ensure compliance with the dress code. Please label all outer garments and your student’s backpack with their full name. 

The faculty and staff of Bill Roberts reserve the sole right to interpret and enforce the student dress code.  Students who violate the dress code will be required to take off the clothing item (if appropriate), or change into a provided article of clothing, or be sent home to change.  The decision to call home is solely determined by Roberts administration.
