Student Attire

HDSB Values and Beliefs:

Students have the right to express themselves at school without fear of
disrespectful remarks, discipline, body shaming, bias, discrimination, or
harassment
Individuals are responsible for managing their own personal biases,
behaviours and or perspectives/opinions related to others’ choice of clothing
and/or self-expression
We uphold students’ rights based on their race, age, ability, sex, gender
identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, ethnic origin, creed,
socio-economic circumstances, or body type/size
Student attire enforcement must not interfere with, limit, or impact school
attendance or sense of inclusion
Schools must maintain a safe learning environment in classes where
protective or supportive clothing is required based on subject-specific safety
guidelines (e.g., physical education, science, technology)
Student Attire standards must prevent students from wearing clothing or
accessories that display (but are not limited to) the following: images, logos or
language that demean or portray ethnic prejudice, stereotypes, racism,
sexism, vulgarity, violence, obscenities, profanity, hate speech, sexually
explicit images/pornography, display or reference alcohol, drugs or related
paraphernalia, illegal conduct or activities
Student Attire standards must prevent students from exposing nipples and
genitals
