Uniform and Dress Code Expectations
Lincoln follows the student uniform regulations adopted by the Nogales Unified School District Governing Board under NUSD J-2361 / JICA-RA. Uniforms support a safe, disciplined learning environment and help students represent Lincoln with pride.
Students are expected to arrive in the complete, school-approved uniform each day unless an approved spirit day or no-uniform incentive has been announced. If a student arrives without the proper uniform:
The teacher will remind the student of the expectation and have the student contact a parent or family member to bring the correct uniform clothing.
When appropriate, the nurse’s office may be contacted to determine whether a clean uniform item is available in the student’s size.
Repeated concerns may be addressed according to the NUSD Behavior Management Handbook and school procedures.
The District handbook explains that school rules are publicized, taught, and enforced; students are responsible for appropriate behavior, and family support is essential. Please check your child’s clothing before school and contact the office if your family needs assistance obtaining uniform items.
