Date: January 29, 2016
Please find attached the prom dress code. Students that participate in prom must return the signed prom
dress code form. Sample dresses are provided. If you have a question about a dress, please bring a picture of the
front and back of the dress to the office prior to purchasing the dress. A committee of parents and students has
been assembled to make final decisions. We want prom to be an enjoyable experience for all students, parents,
and community stakeholders. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Forest Park High School
Prom Dress Code for Students
Why do we have a Dress Code?
The Forest Park Administration wants you to make good choices. We are not trying to inhibit your individual style. Prom should be fun and memorable, but we also want everyone to be comfortable, safe, and show Ranger PRIDE.
With modesty and safety in mind, the following dress code guidelines will be enforced at Forest Park High School
Formal activities. Failure to adhere to the dress code standards will prevent your participation in the event.
Girls Dress Code:
1. Dresses may not be cut below the bust line. Excessive cleavage is not allowed. 2. Dress may be backless as long as it is not cut below the navel. 3. Midriffs: only a s l iver can show (2” maximum) and absolutely NO BELLY BUTTONS. 4. Dresses must not have a slit that exceeds mid-thigh (fingertip length). 5. No pinning or taping will be allowed as an alteration for a dress if without the pinning or taping the
dress does not meet dress code. 6. Dress length must be mid-thigh (approximately 5" inches above the middle of the knee both in the front
and the back). 7. Sheer (see through) dresses with minimum (little beading) are not allowed.
Boys Dress Code:
1. Prom: Suits, sport coats or tuxedos must be worn along with a tie and dress shoes. Holiday Ball: Dress pants with a tie and dress shoes
2. Canes will not be permitted. 3. Shirts must be buttoned up to the second button from the collar. 4. Pants should fit properly on the hip and not sag below the waistline.
As you begin shopping for a dress/suit, please keep these guidelines in mind. While we will be reasonable in the interpretation of these guidelines, we want you to know that you will not be allowed to participate in prom activities if you are not dressed appropriately. If you have specific questions about the Prom Dress Code, please see the Principal for clarification.
I hereby acknowledge receipt of the dress code for the 2016 High School Prom and that failure to adhere to the stated
guidelines will result in my not being permitted to participate in prom activities.
