MADISON COUNTY, AL (WAFF) -
The trend for tightening dress codes for teachers is making its way to school districts across the country, but so far it does not appear any districts in the Tennessee Valley are planning to change their policies.
Huntsville City Schools said their dress code for teachers according to a guideline from their Policy Manual in section 5.1:
"Employee Attire - Employees are required to report to work or to school functions in attire that is appropriate to their position and the nature of the function and that is in keeping with generally accepted standards of decorum and professionalism. Service and other employees who are issued uniforms shall wear uniforms when required."
Madison County School officials outline a much more detailed, specific dress code policy for teachers and staff. It includes rules bans on tight shirts, short skirts, clothing with pictures or slogans that suggest politics or adult activities, and a requirement for teachers to tuck in their shirts. You can read the full policy here.
Today, some schools are banning jeans for all teachers, requiring teachers to cover piercings and tattoos, and strictly defining business casual dress after community members complain of inappropriate teacher attire.
