DRESS CODE
A higher standard of dress encourages greater respect for individuals, scholars and others, and results in a higher standard of behavior. Our dress code guidelines indicate appropriate school dress during normal school days. SOMERSET COLLEGE PREP reserves the right to interpret these guidelines and/or make changes during the school year. Scholars are expected to follow these guidelines. Every scholar in attendance shall wear the school uniform. Dress code also applies on the school bus, as it is an extension of the school. This includes students in dual enrollment, also, when on campus.
House Lanyards and School Issued Student IDs are a mandatory part of our uniform. The lanyard worn must be of the House to which the student is assigned. Wearing a lanyard of a House to which the student is not assigned is a violation of dress code.
