4216 - CLASSIFIED STAFF DRESS AND GROOMING
The Board of Education believes that classified staff members are an important and integral part of the District. Also, since the classified staff is a highly visible staff to the students, the professional staff, and the public, the Board believes the classified staff should at all times be well dressed and groomed. Classified staff members who understand this precept and adhere to it enlarge the importance of their task, present an image of dignity, and encourage respect.
The Board retains the authority to specify the following dress and grooming guidelines for classified staff. When assigned to District duty, all classified staff members shall:
| A. | be physically clean, neat, and well groomed; | |
| B. | dress in a manner consistent with their classified responsibilities; | |
| C. | dress in a manner that communicates to others a pride in personal appearance; | |
| D. | dress in a manner that does not cause damage to District property; | |
| E. | be groomed in such a way that their dress or hair style does not disrupt the educational process or cause a health or safety hazard. |
