5Bs a School Dress code for the 21st CenturyMichael Maxson M.Ed

Introduction People in the United States in the 21st Century have

greater rights than ever before when it comes to what they choose to wear.

However, it’s important to note that many environments, such as businesses, courts, and organizations, still hold to strict standards of dress.

Schools are one such environment. Especially since many kinds of dress can disrupt the learning environment.

This presentation is meant as a guideline and can be modified for dress codes in any environment.

This Example Environment reflects the Public Schools of North Carolina in March 2016.

Conclusion The bottom line is dress for the environment. Also, know what the people in that environment

find acceptable and especially offensive when it comes to clothing.

Always ask about dress, however, be aware that some people have the assumption that you “know how to dress right” so always check out any environment for rules regarding dress, and if in doubt dress conservatively, men- jacket and ties, women- long dress or professional suit.

If you’re in the military, police, fire, ems, your uniform is always a good choice.
