Dress Code

Students must wear:

  • Shirt
  • Bottom (e.g. pants, Sweatpants, shorts, skirt, dress, and leggings)
  • Shoes (curricular specified and activity-specific shoe requirements are permitted)

Certain body parts must be covered for all students. Clothes must be worn in a way such that the chest, midriff, pelvic/groin area, and buttocks are covered with opaque (non-see through) material.

Students are not permitted to wear attire, including wearable technology that is disruptive to the school environment, that promotes illegal or harmful activities, or that could endanger the health or safety of that student or others during school hours and school-related activities. Attire that depicts profanity, hate speech, obscenity, use of weapons, sexually suggestive messages, gang affiliation, violence, drugs, tobacco, alcohol, and or may damage school property are not permitted at any time. (Policy 9210)

Lunch/Food Delivery

During lunch shifts, students should report to the cafeteria and are not permitted to leave school grounds or be in an alternate location (hallways, parking lot, media center, etc.) without prior permission from a staff member.  Lunch can be eaten in the cafeteria and outside the front of the building. Lunch may not be eaten in the hallways, media center, classrooms, parking lot or cars.

Lunch is provided daily through our Cafeteria. Students may bring in a lunch when they arrive in the morning and use the microwaves during lunch to heat up anything that they bring.

Students may not leave campus to purchase lunch at anytime during the school day. Leaving school grounds will result in disciplinary action.

Students are not permitted to order food to be delivered during the school day. This includes but is not limited to: using UberEats, GrubHub, Door Dash or any other food delivery service.  School deliveries from outside unknown resources are considered a Student Safety Risk and Violation/School Disruption (Policy 1040).  Food ordered and delivered to the building will be confiscated and can be picked up in the front office after school.

We ask that parents have students bring any lunch from home with them in the morning when they arrive to school. If a parent needs to bring their students lunch to school they must drop it off in the front office. The student can pick it up during their assigned lunch shift and eat it in the cafeteria or pick it up after school.

Attendance

All Students are expected to be in their seats, ready to work, when the bell rings. Students will not receive credit for any work missed due to unexcused absence from class or unexcused lateness to class.

  • Parents/Guardians should send any excused notes to HaHSAbsence@hcpss.org 
  • Students arriving to school late will sign in at the front office before reporting to class.
