Daniel Jenkins Academy Dress Code Information for 2024-2025
All Daniel Jenkins Academy students are required to wear our standard dress for the 2024-2025 school year. The standard dress consists of twill khaki bottoms (includes capris, shorts, skorts, and skirts) with a Daniel Jenkins Academy shirt.
Please remember that clothing must fit properly. Girls’ clothing should not be too tight or too short. Boys’ clothing should not be too large or too baggy. Please remember that stretch type material, blue jean type material, or jean style pants, shorts, and skirts are not acceptable.
Shirts must remain tucked in, and the bottoms must be worn with an approved belt with a standard belt buckle. The belt must be worn in the belt loops of the pants. Students may not wear cut-off pants. All edges of pants or shorts must be hemmed. All coats and jackets must also be DJA apparel. Students may not wear any outer jackets or sweatshirts that are not DJA. If students do not abide by the dress code policy, this will result in a referral to the Office. Proper attention must also be given to personal cleanliness, neatness and safety.
The chart on the next page provides guidelines for clothing and other apparel that may be worn, as well as important information regarding haircuts, styles, and colors and items that should not be brought to school. Hair color must remain only neutral/natural colors. A violation of these rules will result in disciplinary action.
Please note that the DJA dress code may be slightly changed from year to year. Because of this, an item that is acceptable for one year may not be acceptable the following school year. These changes are usually minor and most often involve belts, socks, and shoes.
