HSLJ implements a dress code to ensure that students dress for success every day of the school year

in a manner that promotes professional behavior and a positive


attitude towards learning. This routine reinforces for the students the importance of dressing appropriately for the world of work and their future professional
endeavors. We often have a lot of community collaborators involved in Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice come to our school, and we want each student to
have an opportunity to take on a role in that collaboration.
