DRESS CODE We believe that when students are dressed appropriately for school they will be very successful. Student behavior is greatly improved, leading to a more productive working environment, when students are dressed appropriately for school. MMS has established a Dress Code that gives families flexibility in the way their child dresses. Please use good judgment when dressing for school and all school-related events.
Dress Code (Continued) CONSEQUENCE Dress code violators will be sent to the Dress Tank, which is located in the clinic, to receive appropriate attire. Students who use M.M.S. Dress Tank attire are responsible for returning them at the end of the day. Please read the dress code expectations in the student planner. We thank you for assisting us in keeping MMS an excellent learning environment.

Consequences of persistent tardiness : ➢ Loss of valuable instructional time. ➢ Teacher must re-explain information. ➢ Interferes with the learning of others. ➢ Causes students to have a poor start to the instructional day. ➢ Student can be assigned Lunch Detention/ISR. ➢ Parent notification and possible conference if tardies persist.
