Non-compliance with the dress code will result in a student not being allowed
into class until he is compliant. Failure to adhere to the dress code will result
in a lowering of the student’s Derech Eretz grade. Repeated dress code
violations could lead to disciplinary action including suspension. The dress
code is applicable throughout the school day, from shacharis to class to
meals to Night Seder to ma’ariv. The Administration reserves the right to
make the final decision regarding any dress code infraction.
Weekdays
Any student who violates the dress code will receive an email home and a
mark toward his Derech Eretz grade and may be asked to comply with the
dress code before returning to school.
