Students and staff are bound by CBE regulations at all times and in all spaces associated with the school. At SVS, your dress at school should be suitable for a wide range of learning activities. It should allow for comfort, ease of movement and freedom from distraction to you and peers in any learning situation. Just as there is a mode of dress that is suited to office work, to sports activities, or to various social or formal functions, there is also a mode of dress suited to classroom learning.

Distracting clothing is inappropriate for school (e.g. Beach wear, exposed underwear, clothing with suggestive or offensive messages or images). Head wear, sunglasses, bandanas, chains and jewelry which may cause a safety hazard are not to be worn. Footwear must be worn at all times for both health and safety reasons.

Running shoes must be worn for Physical Education classes and students are asked to come dressed for the weather. The only exception for these clothing expectations will be during special days which are planned for the school.

Expectations for dress at school are intended to promote a positive learning atmosphere, all members of the school community are asked to support and respect these expectations.
