DRESS CODE POLICY Appropriate student behavior/dress is necessary to provide a quality learning environment at Robinson. The vast ma-jority of students ARE appropriately dressed and their efforts in this regard ARE appreciated. The decision of the build-ing administration will be final in all disputes concerning student dress. Please remember: 1. Students will be expected to show their Student Identification card to every 1st hour teacher upon entering the
classroom. If students do not have an ID, they will be sent to the office to get a temporary ID. ID’s should be on the student’s body at all times throughout the school day. Student ID’s may not have stickers, markers, or anything covering up the students pictures or barcode.
2. Cell phones, electronic devices and accessories are to be powered off and not used during the school day from 7:50—3:10, unless being used for instructional lessons with a teacher
3. Clothing or items that advertise or promote gang affiliation, drugs, alcohol or tobacco products, contain references to sex, profanity, or show suggestive, vulgar, obscene writing, pictures or symbols are not allowed. (items referring to specific body parts)
4. ALL shirts must have on the shoulder sleeves. Spaghetti strap tees, camis, or tank top undershirts are not allowed even if worn under a jacket. Shirttails must be long enough (3” overlap with pants) to cover midriff, skin and under clothing while sitting or standing. Shirts must not show the chest area, stomach, and back.
5. Shorts, sports shorts, and skirts, tunics, and dresses must be finger-tip length or longer in the front, in the back, and on the sides, when walking, even when worn with leggings. Shorts with the slits in the sides are not allowed.
6. Hats, hoods, caps should be worn outside only and should be kept in your locker during the school day. Bandanas and do-rags are not allowed. Headbands may not be wider than the student ID.
7. Sunglasses, chains, and dog collars, are prohibited. 8. Underwear, pajamas, or house slippers should not be worn to school as clothing. 9. Pants, jeans, skirts, and shorts should fit correctly at the waist and not expose any under clothing. Sagging is not
permitted. Students sagging will have ‘ties’ put into the belt loops to hold the pants up appropriately. Students who continue to sag will be written up and referred to administration for additional consequences.

the bandana print on it. 12. Excessive make-up and hairstyles are not permitted if they are a distraction to learning. 13. Leggings can be worn underneath shorts, shirts, skirts, or pants of fingertip length all around. Leggings may NOT be
worn alone as pants. 14. Coats, purses, and book bags must be kept in the locker during the day. The above code/expectations will be applied fairly and equally regardless of gender. Changes or additions to the Dress Code may be made based on the need to maintain a proper learning environment during the year. We view dress codes as a problem to be solved, not a disciplinary issue. In the event that there is a dress code issue, we will follow these steps to solve the problem: 1. Student will be given the option to change into clothes they have with them. If they have nothing suitable then, 2. Student will be given the option to change into clothes the office has on hand. If they refuse then, 3. Students will be given the option to call home and request a parent to bring clothes to wear. If that is not possible, 4. Student will have to sit in the office, ISSR, or an alternate setting for the day or until appropriate clothing can be
acquired. It is our priority to keep students in class as much as possible, and get them back to class as soon as pos-sible.

inappropriate meaning; pro-
fanity, sexual content, drugs,
tobacco, gangs, alcohol,

phrases, and pictures. This
includes all bandana print.

should be hidden from
view: boxers, other
shorts, bra straps, etc.
Clothing cannot be see-through
and shirts must have sleeves.
We expect our students to dress and groom themselves as individuals with a sense of
responsibility and self-respect. The Dress Code is designed to help students recognize
choices regarding attire that would be appropriate in the their future workplace as well
as in an educational setting. Students are expected to dress, groom, and attire them-
selves in a manner that is not potentially dangerous, does not distract others, or disrupt
education, and does not convey a message contrary to District Policy. The decision of
the building administration will be final in all disputes concerning student dress.

tip length and not be ripped
or torn above fingertip length.

fingertip length shorts, skirts,
tunics, or dresses, BUT not

HOMEWORK POLICY Purpose: Academic excellence is the standard at Robinson. Homework contributes toward building responsibility, self-discipline, and lifelong learning habits. Homework will provide students with the opportunity to apply information that they have learned.
Responsibilities of Staff Staff will provide opportunity for students to attend ZAP (Zeros Aren’t Permitted) during the lunch period to work
on grades. Staff will assign homework that is relevant and supports current classroom learning.
Staff will use variety in approaches to homework assignments. Staff will ensure that homework instructions are clear and that students understand the purpose so that it can be
completed independently. Staff will provide relevant and timely feedback and update grades weekly. Staff will communicate with other staff to avoid the assignment of excessive homework and ensure high comple-
tion rates. Staff will communicate with parents/guardians regarding incomplete, late, and missing homework.
Telephone, email, progress reports, meetings, etc.
Responsibilities of Students Students will ask questions if the assignment is not clear. Students will find a quiet homework area. Students will set a regular study time each day and follow it. Students will produce quality completed work and turn it in on time. Students will read consistently each evening to meet the 25 Books Campaign goals. Students will practice their orchestra or band instrument according to the guidelines set forth by the instructors in
those classes.

Parents/Guardians will communicate with the teaching staff if homework is overly challenging or time consuming. Parents/Guardians will monitor student learning. (ParentVue, phone calls, emails, etc.) Parents/Guardians may request homework if a student has been absent for two or more days.
Teachers must have 24 hours to gather assignments which will be sent to the main office. Parents/Guardians will oversee your student’s organizational strategies. For example:
Are daily assignments listed in the agenda? What was the score on the last assignment? Does your student need supplies for any classes?
RAM D/F LIST
The RAM D/F List will be updated each week on Monday morning. Students should have class work taken care of on Friday each week in order to be eligible to participate the following week.
