Roger Gehring is not a uniform school, but we do enforce the Clark County School District Dress Code. The Clark County School District reserves the right to insist that the dress and grooming of the students be within the limits of generally accepted community standards. Students shall be required to show proper attention to personal cleanliness. Fashions and fads that become a health or safety hazard to oneself, or to others, will not be allowed.
Students’ dress, personal appearance, and conduct are required to be of such character as not to disrupt or detract from the educational environment of the school or create a safety hazard. Any style which tends to diminish instructional effectiveness or discipline control by teachers is not acceptable. The school administration shall have the right to designate which type of dress or appearance disrupt or detract from the educational program and may be a potential safety hazard.
