DRESS CODE EXPECTATIONS


Attention Students: Dress for Success! Our dress code is a valuable guide, ensuring appropriate attire for school and all functions. It also equips you with a vital skill for future employment success. At East, we encourage practicing the distinction between work and recreation attire, fostering a foundation for long-term achievements. Our principles prioritize clothing that maintains a focused learning environment, preserves school activities, and upholds safety standards. Dress code matters for your academic journey!
