Dress Code
Uniform
The purpose of the school uniform is to minimize distractions and direct students’ efforts toward who they are and the important business of their education. Wrinkled or soiled uniforms, or shirts with holes or missing buttons are not to be worn. Proper hem length must be maintained (see uniform chart in the handbook). All uniforms must be sized to fit and be worn properly. They should be neither too small nor too large, too long nor too short. Uniform pants of all types are to be worn at the waist, not on the hips. Shirts and blouses must be worn tucked in properly. Only necklaces depicting Christian symbols may be worn. One modest bracelet or one band supporting a meaningful cause may be worn if it does not cause a distraction. Hairbands, bows, barrettes, etc…must be modest. No bandanas, large bows, neon colors, etc.. No tattoos, permanent or temporary, are allowed, nor is any altering of natural hair color. Makeup is not permitted except for what is outlined in the handbook. It is the parents’ responsibility to guarantee that the dress code is enforced for uniform and dress down
attire and hair length.
Please refer to the handbook for more specifics regarding uniform requirements.
Uniforms may be purchased from FlynnO’Hara here.
