Dress Down/Dress Day
Non-uniform day clothing is to be appropriate to a learning environment. Clothing that causes a distraction or disruption in the school and creates a health or safety risk is deemed inappropriate for students.
Examples of clothes that disrupt the education process include: beach attire, lounge/pajama wear (except on Pajama Day), visible undergarments, crop tops, and lettering advertising tobacco, alcohol, or other drugs or designs considered in poor taste.
The following dress is not allowed as it may disrupt the educational setting:
No part of any undergarment is to be visible while standing or sitting No bare midriffs
No strapless tops or low cut tops
No short shorts or skirts
No hats, bandannas, scarves, or their headwear during the school day. Students are expected to remove headwear upon entering the building. No coats, jackets, or outerwear during the school day.
Accessorize your uniform days – Children are permitted to wear hats, socks, ties, jewelry that go with the theme of the day. (These events are 2.00 each)
To Pay for Dress Down Days, you have two options. First, you can pay as you go. Handing in $5. 00 that morning to the homeroom teacher.
