Jeans on Fridays?

What is your school's policy on this?

We don't have a policy in writing. But many teachers wear jeans on Fridays. I do but I didn't until I had tenure.

Re: Jeans on Fridays?

I ALWAYS wear jeans of Friday- most staff do...we also have Spirit day Fridays (wear blue and yellow tees)

Sometimes I wear jeans on Thursdays or even wednesdays depending on how I feel. Jeans are my go to staple when I'm bloated or uncormfortable! I alwasy wear with high heeled boots and blouses though

Re: Jeans on Fridays?

spirit days are fridays, so we're allowed to wear jeans/sneakers on fridays - looked down upon during the week

admin discretion in our county in fl, but most schools are ok w/capris during the week as long as they're dressed up

We have no dress code, but I usually save jeans for Fridays, but some teachers wear them everyday. My school is very casual, I wear flip flops everydayChat Icon

Re: Jeans on Fridays?

I wear jeans every day. I am much more productive when I am comfortable in my clothing. In 11 years, I have never been asked to change.

our district does it as a fundraiser... "Dollars for Denim" they call it. in the beginning of the year, they count up the number of fridays in the school year, and if you want to wear jeans on fridays, you pay $1 for each friday. so, this year there are 34 fridays, so you paid $34.
the money goes to a different cause every year i think. i think one year it went to hurrican katrina, this year its going to a schlarship fund for high school students who have been through our district.... its a neat thing...

I wear jeans on Fridays. So many people I work with dress like such slobs that this year I started dressing down a bit. I have a few pair of denim trousers, which I wear with nice shoes and dressy tops. That's my usual "uniform"

Re: Jeans on Fridays?

Re: Jeans on Fridays?

I haven't yet this year, but usually I wear jeans on Pay day Fridays and most of the time on snow days...
we do not have a dress code- and many people wear jeans whenever they feel like it- it is a good mix on how people dress-

Funny though- the kids really notice it- The other day I had a girl tell me that I dress really nice- I thanked her and she said, yeah you always look nice- no jeans, and even when you dress down you still look dressed up (lol) and then she added- not like some of the other teachers who dress like slobs-

I think I have done it twice, usually on spirit days. Wouldn't attempt it until you are tenured.

Re: Jeans on Fridays?

i personally would not do it in my new district until I have tenure. We do have school psirit days so i do it then- but thats it.

In the city i did it - fridays only. I feel like inte beginning its better to dress more on the professional side because you are trying to establish you authority. JMO though.

The sending people home who wore jeans on snowy days is a little rediculous in my opinion. It's bad enough if you have to drive to work in the snow but then people want you to wear nice clothes only to get them ruined in the snow. Wow!

I totally hear ya!! He feels it takes two seconds to throw more appropriate clothes in the car and change once you get to work.
