In addition to our uniform colors of white, black, navy, grey, and burgundy shirts and black, white, and navy pants we have other guidelines for our dress code. This includes no bandanas, no sunglasses, no spaghetti strap shirts. This also includes no mesh fabric or anything revealing such as low cut shirts or shorts skirts and shorts. During prom some of these guidelines do not apply. You can wear halter or strapless dresses. However, there are still some restrictions that apply. Dress cannot be more than 4 inches short above the knee, slits in dress cannot be more than 5-6 inches above the knee, and back of dress must be 4 inches above the hipbone. If these guidelines are not followed administrators reserve the right to deny entry to students.

The sports department includes: Junior Varsity and Varsity teams of both men's and women's basketball, soccer, tennis, swimming, cross country, track and field in addition to volleyball, wrestling, baseball, softball and cheerleading.
