Dress Code & Personal Appearance Policy

The Jesuit High School Dress Code & Personal Appearance Policy establishes standards to ensure students experience a safe, welcoming, and mission‑centered learning environment. These expectations serve to unify our student body, fostering a shared sense of pride and belonging within the Jesuit High School community.

All articles of clothing must be opaque, and clothes must be worn in a way such that a student’s stomach, shoulders, abdomen, and chest are fully covered at all times.

Standard Attire (majority of school days) requires:

  • Tops
    • Students must wear a JHS polo top. A JHS sweatshirt, JHS sweater, or  JHS jacket may also be layered and worn.
  • Bottoms
    • Students may wear solid, single-colored pants or shorts.
      •  NOTE: The solid, single-colored pants or shorts must also comply with the restrictions and prohibited styles outlined in the “Students May Not Wear” section noted in the handbook.  (i.e., no pajamas, loungewear, sweatpants, or sleepwear. No cargo-style or painters-style. No rips, tears, frays, holes, etc. Jeans only on casual Fridays.)
  • Shoes/Footwear
    • Students must wear shoes/footwear at all times, and shoes must completely enclose the entire foot (heel and toe).
  • Hats & Headwear 
    • Students may wear an official JHS logo hat or beanie. JHS logo hats and beanies must allow the student’s face to be visible to staff and must not interfere with the line of sight of any student or staff member. Students must remove hats and headwear inside the classroom.
  • Raincoats, Heavy Jackets, and Winter Coats
    • Students may wear a non-JHS raincoat, a heavy jacket, or a winter coat. Students must be wearing an approved JHS top underneath. Students must remove raincoats, heavy jackets, or winter coats inside the classroom
  • Hair
    • Student’s hair must be a natural hair color.
