Even on days when you did not brush your teeth, chewing gum inside any GCS building is prohibited. Violation of this policy most likely will result in assignment of a behavioral detention.

Except on Casual or Casual + Days, students should not wear t-shirts to school.
Also, when wearing sweatshirts, hoodies, etc. as "outerwear," students should have a top underneath their "outerwear" that falls within our dress code guidelines.
