Highline Schools ::: Chinook Middle School

Chinook will have uniform requirements for the 2012-2013 school year based on a super majority (72%) of our 6th and 7th grade parents voting on this topic.  ​

Chinook will have uniform requirements for the 2012-2013 school year based on a super majority (72%) of our 6th and 7th grade parents voting on this topic.  Both parents and administration strongly agree that the adoption of a mandatory uniform policy would provide the following benefits to our school: 

• Increased campus security. Chinook uniforms would clearly identify Chinook students from other students who should not be on our campus during operational hours. 
• Reduction of gang influence at Chinook.  
• Uniforms have been shown to contribute to a more positive and focused learning environment.
•  Generally, uniforms cost less than regular clothing.
•  Uniforms provide a more inclusive learning environment.
•  School uniforms contribute to a stronger sense of school pride.

 The Uniform Policy and specifics are detailed on school website under the Uniform Policy link.​
