Hello MIT HS Students and Families,

MIT HS students earned two free dress days for meeting at least 98% participation on both the Reading and Math tests. Monday is the second Free Dress Day. The NWEA test is administered three times a year. As a charter school, we are required to have a verifiable local assessment in addition to state testing. MIT scholars and families are expected to take the NWEA tests seriously to monitor student progress and growth. We appreciate the effort demonstrated by the students.

Remember that Free Dress Day requires more effort and care than donning dress code attire. We cannot dictate every type of clothing article. Please use common sense to show respect for the learning environment as well as adhere to the guidelines below.

Free Dress Day Guidelines

1. Free Dress Day is not a Pajama Day. No pj bottoms or pj onesie. 

2. Shoes must be worn at all times and suitable (e.g. sneakers). No Crocs, slip-ons, or sandals.

3. Clothing, jewelry and personal items shall be free of writing, pictures or any other insignia which are crude, vulgar, profane or sexually suggestive, which bear drug, alcohol or tobacco company advertising, promotions and likenesses, or which advocates racial, ethnic or religious prejudice. 

4. Clothes shall be sufficient to conceal undergarments at all times. See-through or fish-net fabrics, halter tops, off-the-shoulder or low-cut tops, bare midriffs and skirts or shorts with hemlines above the fingertips of a natural arm hang are prohibited. 

Kind Regards,
