Commencing every School Year, The Guam Education Board Policy 401 requires all students to be in school uniform. Students are expected to comply with the dress code requirements.
The official uniform vendor Moda Gino’s located in Tamuning. Contact number is: 477-8945/7139.
The intent of the JFKHS Student Dress Code is to maintain a positive learning environment that: promotes unity and pride; fosters safety and security of all; minimizes socio-economic distinction; and creates an environment free of harassment.
Students, whose personal attire distracts the attention from the learning process or might be hazardous to themselves or others in the course of school operation, will be required to male the appropriate adjustments that the school administrator may deem necessary to maintain social standards appropriate to a positive and safe learning environment.
The following points address the dress code and school attire:
