set forth to aid one in dressing while a student at John Milledge Academy. The
administration will determine if the guidelines are being followed or not.

Shorts must be regular walking (long) short length. Cutoff shorts are not

not permitted.
Low necklines or blouses with narrow spaghetti straps (less than 3 finger width
across the strap) are not permitted.
Blouses/shirts must be long enough to cover midriff when arms are extended
above the head and the neckline should touch collarbone. No halter tops are

Any apparel that would fail to gain respect for a young lady (Not too tight, too
short, or showing undergarments, etc.) is not permitted.
Sheer shirts must have a solid shirt underneath that covers the midriff and is at
least three-fingers in width across at the shoulders.
Bras are to be worn by young ladies with noticeable development.
If a violation of the dress code occurs, the parent/guardian of the student will be
contacted. If a student is in violation of the dress code in a reavealing manner, then a
parent/guardian will be contacted to bring a change of clothes for the student before the
student returns to class. Repeated dress code violations will result in a parent/guardian
conference with administration.
