Dress Code

FCCLA's Board of Directors has set forth a mandatory dress code policy for the National Leadership Conference, National Fall Conference, and Capitol Leadership. Please review the policy prior to attending to ensure you and your students do not miss out on any sessions.

The FCCLA official dress is worn for National FCCLA activities per the dress code as outlined. Students may select the attire that best fits the gender with which they identify. This is a personal choice as long as the FCCLA guidelines are followed.
