DRESS POLICY BUSINESS CASUAL

To avoid accusations of favoritism, abuse of power, and sexual harassment, supervisors are prohibited from dating employees who report to them. If this occurs, the supervisor may face disciplinary action.

Relationships with Students

Our faculty and staff are an integral part of our students lives and serve to educate, support, and empower our students. Personal relationships with our students can jeopardize our ability to do so impartially and professionally. Employees of Invictus High School are expected to maintain only professional working relationships with students and not engage in personal friendships with students.

Further, it is a violation of state law and Invictus High School policy for any faculty or staff to engage in a consensual romantic relationship with a student of Invictus High School regardless of their age. If this occurs, the employee may face a Title IX investigation and are subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination.

DRESS POLICY: BUSINESS CASUAL

Invictus High School strives to provide a work environment where teachers and staff dress professionally and feel comfortable. To meet this goal, we have a business casual dress policy for all instructional days. This policy does not require teachers and staff to purchase business casual attire. Teachers and staff who prefer to dress in formal or traditional business attire should feel free to do so. The building director does have the option of periodically approving alternate attire at their discretion.

The following guidelines define acceptable business casual attire and should be referred to in determining teachers and staff members daily wardrobe:

Business casual attire includes (but is not limited to):

Khakis, corduroys, mid-calf or longer dress pants Polo and cotton collared shirts, dress shirts and sweaters Skirts and dresses of an appropriate length (near knee or longer) Dress shoes, loafers, open-toed dress shoes, dress sandals and boots

Business casual attire does not include:

Jeans of any color, shorts, capris, overalls, spandex or other form-fitting pants, halter tops, tank tops, beachwear, work-out attire, sweatsuits, t-shirts, Spaghetti strap dresses, Flip-flops, slippers, tennis or other athletic shoes (unless medically necessary, in which case a medical note is required), distracting, revealing, or offensive clothing
