Student Dress Code

The objective at High
Mountain and Memorial School is to have students dress in an
appropriate way which does not cause a disruption to the normal
school operation and/or bring attention to one’s self. Make-up
and clothes must be gender appropriate and not excessive to the
point of distraction. The administration reserves the right to
determine what is appropriate. The following dress code

dresses must be worn at a length that is appropriate for
school. Shorts may be worn from April 15th through October
