King/Drew Dress Code

The King/Drew Magnet High School dress code was developed to establish a friendly and professional atmosphere that promotes pride, respect and safety for the students and staff. As a family of professionals, our basic standard for students is to dress as if they were coming to work and take pride in their appearance. School is a place of business. Education is the student’s job. We depend on parental support in controlling our dress standards. The following dress code guidelines will be enforced daily at the King/Drew Magnet High School.

Dress Code Violation Disciplinary Procedures:

Call home to bring correct uniform.
Parent Conference (for repeat offenders)
Suspension if problem is still not resolved
