Weber Technology High School

Weber Institute values upholding and maintaining the established guidelines with regard to the Dress Code as it promotes a positive and inclusive environment where students feel safe, respected, supported, and empowered to learn and grow.

1. Equity
   • Requiring students to be dressed in a specific uniform minimizes social and economic distinctions by preventing the stigmatization of students who cannot afford trendy or expensive outfits.
2. Reduced Bullying and Peer Pressure
   • Uniforms discourage bullying and peer pressure, as there are fewer opportunities for students to be singled out or ridiculed based on their attire. This promotes a more inclusive and supportive environment, focusing on character and personal qualities rather than outward appearances.
3. Fostering a Sense of Belonging
   • Uniforms promote a sense of belonging and unity among students. When students wear the same uniform, they identify themselves as part of a larger community and feel a stronger connection to their school. This sense of belonging helps foster positive relationships and enhances the overall school spirit.
4. Minimizing Distractions
   • Weber’s Dress Code eliminates distractions caused by fashion competitions or inappropriate clothing choices. This creates a focused learning environment where students can concentrate on their studies without being overly concerned about their appearance or comparing themselves to others.
5. Safety and Security
   • Weber’s Dress Code enhances safety and security on campus, as it becomes easier to identify individuals who do not belong to the school community. This contributes to a safer environment for all students by ensuring that only authorized individuals are present on site.
6. Promoting Professionalism
   • Weber’s Dress Code prepares students for future professional settings. By adhering to a dress code during their formative years, students learn about appropriate attire and develop a sense of professionalism. This equips them with valuable skills and knowledge that can benefit them in their future careers.

A successful Weber Institute uniform can be broken down into 2 simple clothing items:

#1 - Slack Pants

#2 - Collar Shirt

The school will commit to enforcing the dress code by clearly communicating the guidelines to students and parents, consistently monitoring and addressing violations, and implementing appropriate consequences for non-compliance.
