POINT ISABEL ISD

STUDENT UNIFORM POLICY

The Point Isabel Independent School District has a Student Uniform Policy (FNCA-Local) in place for the Garriga and Derry Elementary and Port Isabel Junior High School.  The purpose for this Board Policy is to instill discipline, prevent disruption, and avoid safety hazards. The goal is to have a safe and disciplined learning environment. Among the objectives are to decrease potential violence and theft among students over designer clothing, help prevent gang member identification, help parents and students resist peer pressure and to help school officials recognize intruders who come to schools. Please contact your child's school to find out what uniform is required. The District has a Student Uniform Waiver Procedure. The parent or guardian must complete a School Uniform Waiver Form which can be obtained at Central Office. These forms must be submitted between August 1 and the first day of class.
