 An Important Update Regarding Our School Dress Code /Uniform Policy

Please be advised that the Winter School Uniform Policy goes into effect on November 1st.  No more shorts, except for gym class!
It has come to our attention that there is a very wide interpretation of the school Dress Code/Uniform Policy throughout and across the grade levels. By definition, a uniform is a single, unified way of dress. So, in an effort to be fair and consistent in compliance and enforcement of our school policy, we would like to announce these clarifications:

• Leggings and jeggings are not permitted as part of the school uniform, even for gym class or dress-down days
