Uniform
SEK International School Guatemala
Entrance to the school will not be allowed when the uniform is not correct.
General Aspects
The uniform is important; it projects our image inside and outside the school. It is not enough to wear it according to the rules, but it must be worn correctly since proper personal appearance is a value promoted and esteemed by SEK International Institution. Our own image distinguishes us and characterizes us in front of ourselves and others. Therefore, we should be the first to take care of it.
In the case of boys, hair must be short, above the earlobe and without exceeding the shirt collar. Excessively short hair that allows the scalp to be seen is not allowed. They will not be permitted to enter school without shaving, and the use of makeup, extravagant hair dyes or the ostentatious or exaggerated display of accessories and adornments in clothing that, in the school´s opinion, detract from the student´s image, is not allowed. Piercings and tattoos are strictly prohibited.
The use of the formal, daily or sports uniform is mandatory in extracurricular activities according to their nature.
It is appropriate to mention that for students to drive their own vehicles to school, they must be of legal age and have a driver’s license, which must be presented to the Head of Studies at the beginning of the school year.
