Partner with Us: Dress Code and Disconnect to Reconnect
We need your help! Daily dress code violations and personal device distractions are impacting learning. Please review these key expectations with your child:
-
Skirts may not be rolled; shirts may not be tied.
-
Pants must stay at the waist; belts are encouraged.
-
Outerwear must be hoodless and solid navy, hunter green, or white.
-
No personal devices (phones, headphones, iPads). Only DCSD Chromebooks are allowed.
These steps help students focus, stay safe, and reduce disciplinary issues. Your partnership makes a difference!
RAMS On Time — Every Day, Every Class Period!
At Arabia Mountain High School, excellence begins with being present and on time. We are reminding all students of the importance of arriving to school on time each morning and reporting promptly to every class period throughout the day.
Punctuality not only builds strong habits for college and career success but also ensures that no instructional time is lost. Starting this week, random tardy sweeps will be conducted, and repeated tardiness will result in consequences.
Parents, we ask for your support in reinforcing the importance of time management with your scholar so that together, we can continue to uphold our culture of excellence.
RAMS are ready, responsible, and on time—every day, every class period!
