Alternate Dress Code for Dollar Dress Days and other days as designated by the principal.

An Alternate Dress Code means “Free of Uniform,” not the freedom to dress any way a student desires. This code is established so the dress will match the high academic standards and the image of our school. It is to be adhered to BY ALL GRADES, TK THROUGH EIGHTH when alternate dress days are designated.

Clothes must be clean, free of holes, no tears, and in good taste. Oversize or undersize clothing is not allowed, this includes length. Bicycle shorts and boxer shorts cannot extend below the hem of other articles of clothes. Shorts and skirts should be walking length, between the top of the knee and no higher than 2 inches above the knee, no cut-offs or short shorts. Hats, halters, tank tops, and shirts with spaghetti straps or that do not cover the midriff are not allowed. Shoes must have a closed heel and toe; no sandals, or plastic shoes are allowed. Socks or tights are to be worn at all times. The school reserves the right to send anyone home who comes inappropriately dressed. 

Alternate dress is allowed on the days listed below. School uniforms are to be worn if a student is not participating. 

1. A student’s birthday (or day designated for the student who has a weekend or summertime birthday.)
2. Picture Day
