DRESS CODE REMINDERS

Now that the warm weather is here, we want to remind families that students should come to school in a comfortable manner that allows them to be authentically who they are, while also complying with equitable dress code policies. If your child chooses their own clothes to wear, please remind them that some outfits are not appropriate for school.


The following are guidelines for apparel for all students. If you have any questions, please contact the school:


  • Footwear should be comfortable and safe for indoor and outdoor school surfaces. Crocs, flip-flops, beach or loose footwear are not appropriate for school and may be dangerous on our playground.
  • The length of shorts or skirts is to be appropriate for school and there is to be no wording on the seat.
  • Inappropriate slogans, offensive content, or expressions, etc., are not to be worn on clothing.
  • Undergarments are not to be visible.
  • Any attire the administration considers interfering with quality of education shall not be permitted
