Who’s Who in the Jersey City Public Schools

Dr. Epps received a request from the Student Council Members asking permission for Seniors Only to wear Business Attire. This is a pilot program. Students that do not wish to participate will continue to wear their uniforms. Dress for Success and the Lincoln High School Cosmetology Staff have volunteered to conduct workshops for the students. A committee will monitor the program. Tentative schedule to start the program is January 2010.
