A day students get to come out of the dress code, and not wear uniforms. Jeans Day is celebrated on Fridays, and today, Friday, September 1, was the first Jeans Day of the 2023-2024 school year.
“It’s a great day to end the week. I wouldn’t do it on a Monday, it would be boring,” said Mr. Baker, an administrator. “I want students to express themselves because I know our dress code can be kind of strict.”
The rules for Jeans Day are to wear appropriate pants with no rips, and an appropriate t- shirt.
“I think that jeans day is really good,” said Laila Weir, a 10th grader in the Pre-Architecture Academy. “Except for the part we have to pay because paying for your own clothes is wild.”
In order to participate, students have to pay a dollar and show their school ID in the auditorium to receive a wristband to enter campus.
A variety of students did not participate in this occasion. Students that didn’t, had to stay in school uniform dress code. Others did engage to get out of uniform and support the school.
“I didn’t feel like being in uniform, I got a free day to dress out,” said Heshler Nerelus, a 12th grader in the Pre Law Academy. “One dollar helps SGA, sports activities, and the school overall.”
“Jeans day is a wonderful day to enjoy if you like to wear jeans,” said Mr. Morehouse, an English language arts teacher.
