Principal's Message
Spring is right around the corner and warm weather is upon us! We would like to take this opportunity to remind all students of the GOC dress code.
Shirts/Blouses/Tops/T-shirts - blouses and shirts should be constructed so that the tops of the shoulders are covered (no halter tops, strapless tops, tank tops, spaghetti straps, or bare shoulder tops of any type are permitted). Blouses/shirts that expose any portion of the waist, hips or midriff are not allowed. Other blouses/shirts that are not appropriate for school include, but are not limited to, low-cut, see through, backless, or tube tops. Rips or holes are not allowed in shirts/tops.
Shorts/Skirts/Pants - shorts and skirts must be a mid-thigh or longer length. Holes or rips are not allowed above the knee for pants or jeans. No sagging pants which reveal undergarments are permitted.
Students will be required to change clothes provided by GOC if they arrive on campus dressed inappropriately.
