School Uniforms

The Secaucus School district takes seriously the responsibility to educate students and prepare them to meet their life goals. This cannot be done effectively when inappropriate clothing or hairstyles create a disruption to the educational process. Students will dress in a modest and appropriate manner.  Specific standards are those of decency, cleanliness, safety, good grooming, and non-interference with teaching and learning.

The Secaucus Board of Education requires all students to wear school uniforms on a daily basis, including field trips. Students are to arrive at school wearing the appropriate clothing as defined in the dress code. The following is a list of clothing items in compliance with the uniform policy.
