    Webb School of Knoxville Code of Dress & Appearance Middle School, 2021-2022 The Webb Middle School uniform allows students to dress neatly and comfortably for the activities in which they engage during a normal school day. All students are expected to be in school uniform every day. We hope the student uniform will help diminish the sartorial competition and peer pressure that is frequent among younger adolescents. Webb’s Middle School is a place where students should be confident that they are accepted for their character and personality, not for what they wear. Special Update for 2021-2022: The formerly instituted formal dress uniform requirement for Middle School is suspended for this school year. Please see below for this year’s Code of Dress & Appearance. All uniform shirts must be purchased from the following providers: Educational Outfitters <http://knoxville.educationaloutfitters.com/find-my-school/webb-school-of-knoxville/> Tommy Hilfiger <http://www.globalschoolwear.com> Lands’ End <https://www.landsend.com/shop/school/S-ytp-xe8?cm_re=lec-_-global-_-glbnv-school-_- 20160525-_-txt> Shirts, pants, skorts, skirts, and shorts also must be purchased from Educational Outfitters, Tommy Hilfiger, or Lands' End. Approved items are located on the Hilfiger site under the Middle School menu; Educational Outfitters has a list of all approved Middle School uniform items. When purchasing uniform items, please consider that your child will probably grow during the school year. This is especially important for eighth graders, who sometimes have to purchase new clothing to meet the dress code with only a few months remaining in the Middle School.

Hamlet: In this 2007 production of Hamlet, the costumes were made from silk and wool fabrics in the shades of pale grey. In contrast, the main character, Hamlet, wore both a black and a scarlet suede doublet and breeches. The ladies were dressed in long sumptous gowns with corsets and padded petticoats.

  • Business Casual Attire
    Business Casual Attire For All Marketing Courses above MKT 230, All BTE courses BTE 260 and above. The Department of Marketing's objective in establishing a dress code is to enable students to project a professional image while still experiencing the comfort advantages of more casual and relaxed clothing. Not all casual clothing is suitable for the classroom, so these guidelines will help you determine what is appropriate to wear. Clothing that works well for the beach, yard work, dance clubs, exercise sessions, and sports contests are not appropriate for a professional appearance. Below is a general overview of what we mean by “acceptable business casual attire.” Items that are not appropriate for the classroom are listed, too. Neither list is all-inclusive and both are open to change. The lists tell you what is generally acceptable as business casual attire and what is generally not acceptable as business casual attire. No dress code can cover all contingencies so students must apply a certain amount of judgment in their choice of clothing to wear to Department of Marketing classes. If you experience uncertainty about acceptable, professional business casual attire for your class, please ask your professor or stop by the Marketing office (352 COB Building) to discuss this with the department chairperson. Clothing should be pressed and never wrinkled. Torn, dirty, or frayed clothing is unacceptable. All seams must be finished. Any clothing that has words, terms, or pictures that may be offensive and/or create a hostile environment for other students is unacceptable. A general guideline for business casual attire for women includes: • Khaki, corduroy, twill or cotton pants or skirts, neatly pressed; • Sweaters, twinsets, cardigans, polo/knit shirts, tailored blouses; • Solid colors work better than bright patterns.

  • DRESS CODE: Christian Heritage Believes That a Student's
    DRESS CODE: Christian Heritage believes that a student's appearance should reflect the impression that formal learning is important enough to call for precision and neatness in dress. Style of clothing should indicate a serious academic purpose on the part of the student and not in any way distract from instruction. Our standards for dress and grooming are in keeping with the high Christian ideals which we seek to establish in those who attend the school. Therefore, we have established the following dress code: SPECIFIC GUIDELINES BOYS AND GIRLS Shirts: Long-sleeved or short-sleeved, knit "polo" style or turtlenecks, in solid white, dark green, navy or primary red (not maroon/burgundy or pink); no emblems, logos, initials/letters, words, or pictures. Middle school students are permitted to wear black, light blue, or primary purple “polo” style shirts. Shirts should not have pockets. Christian Heritage t-shirts may be worn on Fridays and Christian Heritage sweatshirts may be worn as needed. Slacks or shorts: Solid, dark navy or khaki, uniform style, with no labels. Shorts must be no more than two inches above the knee. Capri pants and Bermuda shorts (uniform style) that are purchased from a Uniform Shop, Gap or French Toast may also be worn. Clothing must be properly fitted (an appropriate size) and hemmed to an appropriate length. No cargo pants permitted. Socks or tights: Crew or ankle socks or tights must be worn at all times. Socks and tights must be solid uniform colors (red, navy, white, or black). Shoes: Must be enclosed (no sandals, flip-flops, "jelly" shoes, heelies with wheels, etc.) No boots, “crocs”, or platform shoes may be worn.
