Several changes and/or additions to the La Porte ISD Elementary Dress Code have been made for the 2011-12 school year. Isela Montes, executive director of elementary education, explained that changes were made by the Elementary Dress Code Committee after considering input from parents, teachers and campus administrators.
One addition to the new dress code is that children may now wear a designated school spirit T-shirt on any day of the week, and the spirit shirt does not need to be worn over a collared shirt., Montes said. In addition, dresses and jumpers are not required to have collars.
Other additions to the code include the prohibition of skulls and crossbones on students’ shirts and the requirement that shorts must be mid-thigh length or longer. Shoes must have rubber soles, and leggings/tights may be worn as hosiery under skirts, tunics and dresses (mid-thigh or longer). No “faux Mohawk” hairstyles will be permitted.
