New Jersey S1780 prohibits school districts from denying admittance to students due to tardiness or violations of dress code or school uniform.
New Jersey S1780 amends existing law to ensure that students cannot be denied admittance to school due to tardiness or violations of dress code or school uniform policies. The bill allows boards of education to adopt dress code policies, including school uniforms, if requested by the principal, staff, and parents of an individual school and if the board determines that the policy will enhance the school learning environment. The policy must include provisions to assist economically disadvantaged students and be implemented with at least three months' notice to parents or guardians.
