Dress Code Updates for 2024-25
Dear WHHS Parents and Guardians,
I hope this message finds you well as we approach the summer break. As we look forward to the upcoming school year, we want to ensure all students and families are aware of the updated dress code policy for all Greenville County Schools high schools. The following dress code was approved by the GCS Board of Trustees this past semester and will go into affect this August. These guidelines will help maintain a positive and distraction-free learning environment.
Please review the following requirements carefully and keep them in mind while shopping for back-to-school clothing this summer:
Skirts and Shorts Length: When standing upright, the hem of skirts or shorts must reach the bottom of the fingertips.
Straps on Tops: The width of straps on tops must be at least the width of a student ID card.
Visible Undergarments: No visible undergarments or items worn as undergarments are allowed.
Holes in Garments: Holes in garments or exposed skin are prohibited above the required skirt/short length.
Midriff Areas: No exposed midriff areas are allowed.
Pajama Pants: Pajama pant bottoms are not allowed.
Footwear: No bedroom shoes or slippers are allowed.
Headwear: Hoods, hats, and sunglasses must not be worn inside the building at any time.
Thank you for your understanding and support. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact the school administration.
Wishing you a wonderful and restful summer!
Best regards,
Dr. Carlos C. Grant
