Dress Code Policy

All Nā Wai Ola Public Charter School (NWOPCS) ‘ohana (family) members have kuleana (responsibility) to dress appropriately in order to show respect to oneself and others. Further, there is a positive relationship between appearance and the learning environment. As such, NWOPCS will enforce the following dress code policy. Dress Code is in effect anytime a student is on campus, unless otherwise stated by a school administrator.

Uniform Shirts

Haumāna (students) are required to wear NWOPCS uniform shirts daily. School projects shirts, along with collaborator shirts are not considered uniform shirts, regardless if there is a NWOPCS logo on it, unless approved by an administrator.

Pants

Lengths of shorts and skirts are to be no shorter than 2 inches above the knee, when kneeling.

Outerwear

Jackets and sweaters may be worn over an approved NWOPCS uniform shirt. However, students will be required to remove jackets/sweaters at Piko Wehe and Piko Panina if they become a distraction.  Hats, provided that they are in good taste and of appropriate nature and not worn indoors, are allowed, except during Piko Wehe and Piko Panina. Sunglasses are prohibited, unless they are for prescription use. Haumāna are also required to comply if at any time a staff member asks him or her to show that he/she is wearing a uniform shirt.

Hygiene

Students are expected to maintain proper and healthy personal hygiene habits.

Free Dress Day

On occasion, the school may identify a free dress day, where students may choose to not wear a school uniform. Although a “Free Dress” day, the following remain prohibited:

  • No clothing related to drugs, gangs, alcohol, vulgar acts, and profanity including pictures or words that could be offensive to anyone and are of a questionable nature.
  • No strapless, backless straps that must be tied regardless of width, or open necklines that expose cleavage.
  • No shorts, skirts, or dresses with high slits (slits must be no longer than one inch).
  • No showing of any type of underwear, piko (belly button), or body parts that should be covered by underwear (i.e. no sagging pants, puka (holes), peek-a-boo fashion, low hip-hugger pants, shorts or skirts).
