Yerba Buena High School Dress Code
Along with the dress code policy established by the East Side Union High School District, Yerba Buena students are expected to comply with a common dress policy established by the students, staff and parents of Yerba Buena High School.
Common Dress:
Students are allowed to wear three colors: Green, White and Khaki. Starting with the 2009-2010 school year, students will be allowed to wear SOLID black outerwear (jacket, sweatshirt). “Outerwear” is defined as garments such as raincoats or overcoats, worn over other clothing for warmth or protection. Please be aware that we are not adding a fourth color to our common dress, students wearing a green jacket with a black design/logo will be considered out of common dress. The common dress is enforced during school hours and per state law, school hours are defined as 1 hour before and 1 hour after school has started and ended (6:50 AM to 4:00 PM)
