2017-2018
The dress expectations at Conway Middle School are based on enhancing the learning process and personal safety of our students. The guidelines for determining what is appropriate for school are based on simple premises and beliefs: a well dressed student not only behaves better, but is more likely to see better academic results as well. Proud and Positive Falcon students are highly encouraged to wear Conway uniform apparel at all times.
CMS dress expectation policy under the guidelines of the OCPS policy is listed below:
General Guidelines:
- Clothing must cover all undergarments.
- It is mandatory to keep pants at the waist; belts will be required in pants with belt loops if pants are loose fitting.
