• Overall goal is professionalism.
• Add clarification of allowable headwear for religious exemptions.
• Never allow athletic tights, only loose-fitting athletic wear.  
• Limit jean days, but no holes, rips, tears or patches.
• No shorts.
• Give a more defined business casual definition.
• Footwear should not interfere with safety - should be spelled out further.  Closed toe and closed heel.  Don't want sandals, flip flops or slippers.
• Open to hair dye of other colors.
• Small visible tattoos that aren't vulgar, are allowable.

• Double check that the policy gives clarity around arriving late and checking out early and how BESE addresses it.  
• Does 3 tardies equal an absence still apply?
• Consider making up seat time mid-year not only in summer.
• Students complete make up the work on clever and google classroom.  Clarify with parents that they don't have to print it out, but they can do this online.  
• Determine who monitors the submission of makeup work.
• Cross check full policy against Oct. 2024 policy from 742.

Next meeting:  

Bring a summary report of students with multiple absences and parent contacts in relation to refunding from the state.

Look for training from the state on this from the beginning of the year and send to the board.

Follow up on both items from this meeting.

Share additional data on absences at next meeting.
