The dress code of Hammond High School
shall be that adopted by the Tangipahoa Parish School
System. This includes khaki pants, skirts, or jumpers;
white, navy or purple shirts of the following styles –
oxford or polo, long or short sleeve—and closed-toe,
closed-heel shoes (no wedges, high-heels, sandals,
flip-flops, or slippers). If desired, one (1) t-shirt ONLY
may be worn under the uniform shirt. The procedure for dress
code violations will be as follows:

(3) Student will be sent home until parents bring them
back
to school in proper attire. (No phone calls allowed).
(4) Student will be suspended for three days for willful
disobedience thereafter.
Part of the school uniform at HHS is the school ID.
Students are to wear the ID at all times while on campus. No
alterations or additions to the ID are allowed. Defacing the
ID in any manner will result in immediate ISSP and/or
suspension. The procedure for not having an ID shall be as
follows: (1) Call home for someone to bring ID to school;
(2) Purchase a new one for $5 from the main office; and (3)
If unable to complete 1 or 2, you will be placed in ISSP for
the same day.
We place special emphasis on the following regulations
for grades 9 through 12 at Hammond High School:
(1) Hair styles and mustaches shall be clean and neatly
groomed and shall not detract from the learning environment
nor be a safety factor for any of the school’s curricular
offerings. Any hairstyles that detract from the unique
environment of a school shall be dealt with by the principal
or his/her designee. Markings, designs, or carvings in the
hair are not allowed.
(2) Earrings shall be worn only in the ears of female
students. Earrings shall not be worn by male students. No
large medallions, necklaces, earrings, or nose/tongue rings
shall be worn by either male or female students. No other
visible piercings shall be allowed.
(3) No hats, caps or other headwear shall be worn on
campus, except when a medical condition or religious belief
warrants.
(4) The length of jumpers or skirts shall be knee-length
or below.
(5) No midriff shirts or blouses shall be worn.
(6) All pants (of appropriate size) shall be worn at the
waistline and, if pants have belt loops, a belt must be
worn. Cuffs on pants are allowed ONLY if the design of the
pants originally have them. You may not roll them.
(7) Shirts (of appropriate size) must be worn inside
pants so that belts and belt loops may be seen. This means
that shirts may not be draped or tucked under. Shirts with
finished edges must be longer than waist length and remain
tucked in when arms are raised.
(8) Students who are pregnant must adhere to the uniform
and dress code policy of the Tangipahoa Parish School
System. Students who are pregnant must wear a jumper.

requiring a modification of the dress code.
