School Uniform Information

PLEASANT VIEW DRESS CODE

The Board of Education has approved a school uniform for Pleasant View Middle School. This dress code has been established by the Pleasant View Middle School administration and faculty to create a positive learning environment that promotes academic growth and safety for all students and staff.

Pleasant View will follow the rules below for the uniform:

Clothing in General

1. School clothing must be size-appropriate. It is understandable to purchase clothing a size bigger, so that growing middle school students can fit into them for a time period. However, we will not accept excessively baggy pants or tops that are too long. You should not be able to pull fabric more than 4 inches away from a student’s thigh or back. Shirts that are excessively long will need to be tucked in.

3. Undergarments should not be exposed when the student walks, stands, bends, kneels, or sits.
