Marietta Middle School dress code:
Students are encouraged to dress for success. We believe that proper dress is a positive reflection on our school and promotes self-pride. Student dress and appearance should be neat, clean and comfortable. Additional requirements may be added to meet the needs of specific activities, events or special classes such as physical education. Students in violation of the dress code will be expected to change clothes and/or parents will be contacted. Students may be removed from school or an activity if dress is not appropriate. Discipline may be applied to dress code violations.
