The dress codes for CDI have been developed for the personal health and safety of the student in mind..  It is our objective to create for our student a safe and healthy environment in which to learn.

The dress code for class and car may differ according to the different environment.  We will start from head to foot as to the type of dress that will be allowed.

Hats and Hair:

• Hats will be worn in the way they were designed to be worn (visor forward) and out of the eyes.
• Hair will be pulled back and away from the face so not to interfere with the student's side vision.  This may be done in several ways chosen by the student as to their comfort zone.

Upper Body:

• Upper body dress will cover the upper torso from the shoulders to the hips so as not to allow sweat from the body to collect on the back of the seat.
• No oversize clothing will be allowed as this creates a hazard with movement of the torso.
• No long dangling necklace jewelry worn around the neck.  This means any jewelry that may interfere with the arms or hands that may become tangled.

Pants, Skirts and Shorts:

• Pants will be worn up and in place around the hips and waist.
• No pants that are oversize, that may cause any difficulty with movement, will  be allowed.  (This will be left to the discretion of the Instructor.)
• If you choose to wear a skirt depending on the length, some type of hosiery must be worn under it to protect the seat.
• Shorts shall be knee length.

Foot Wear:

• Proper foot wear will be required.
• Shoes and sneakers will be laced and tied.
• No sandals or flip-flops will be allowed.
• No open heeled shoe.

Please remember at CDI your safety and your leaning environment is one of our main goals, this is why we have developed a dress code to protect you and your fellow students.
