Wake County Public School System has adopted the following policy:


School Board (Policy 6410.1) requires the maintenance of good order in the schools. The principal shall exercise appropriate discretion in implementing the dress code, including making reasonable accommodations on the basis of students' religious beliefs or medical conditions. Students are expected to adhere to standards of dress and appearance that are compatible with an effective learning environment. Presenting a bodily appearance or wearing clothing which is disruptive, provocative, revealing, profane, vulgar, offensive or obscene, or which endangers the health or safety of the student or others is prohibited. If a student's dress or appearance is such that it violates the dress code policy, the principal or designee may require the student to change his or her dress or appearance. A second or repeated violation of this policy may result in disciplinary action.


Examples of prohibited dress or appearance include, but are not limited to:

  • Exposed undergarments
  • Sagging pants
  • Excessively short or tight garments
  • Bare midriff shirts
  • Strapless shirts
  • Attire with messages or illustrations that are lewd, indecent, or vulgar or that advertise any product or service not permitted by law to minors
  • Head covering of any kind
  • See-through clothing
  • Attire that exposes cleavage
  • Any adornment such as chains or spikes that reasonably could be perceived as or used as a weapon
  • Any symbols, styles, or attire frequently associated with intimidation, violence or violent groups about which students at a particular school have been notified
