The dress code was developed through the collaboration of the Community For Community committee, the Superintendent Input Committee, the campus administrations of McClendon Elementary, Roderick Elementary, NeSmith Elementary, Edge Middle School, and Community High School, and district administration. Two options were presented to these committees, and a modified version of one of those two options was approved by all parties.

All shorts, athletic shorts, skirts, and dresses must fall below fingertip length.
