2024-2025 YES Prep Northline Secondary Dress Code

 

Will uniforms be required for students? 

YES! YES Prep Public Schools believes in the power of community and school pride while also deeply valuing a student’s right to express their individuality without the fear of unnecessary discipline, body shaming, or the confines of gender norms. Students have the right to be treated equitably and dress code enforcement at YES Prep Public Schools will not create disparities, reinforce or increase the marginalization of any group, nor will it be unfairly enforced more strictly against a student because of racial identity, ethnicity, gender expression, sexual orientation, cultural or religious identity, household income, body size or type, or body maturity.  

For the 2024-2025 school year, students are required to wear a YES Prep-branded uniform top five days a week, the last day of the week allows for a variation (i.e. – college t-shirt day). 

Additional Guidance

  • All YES Prep students should own at least 1 campus polo. 
  • Uniforms from the 2023-2024 school year and previous years are acceptable if they meet the school’s uniform guidelines.
