Free Dress

Our uniform represents a dress code that is designed to teach our scholars to dress well and present a positive picture of themselves to the world.  Free dress day gives an opportunity to choose an outfit to wear that is in keeping with those standards.

RULES FOR FREE DRESS 

A.    Do not wear tight or low cut shirts, sweaters, skirts or pants. No ripped or torn clothing.

B.    Do not wear short skirts (no shorter than 2'' above the knee).

C.    Do not wear "muscle" shirts or blouses that show bare midriff, back or allow undergarments to show.

D.    Do not wear any clothing that denotes gang activity.

E.    Do not wear any shirts with inappropriate pictures or slogans, such as pictures or logos advocating drug and/or alcohol use

F.     Do not wear any baggy clothing.  Pants must fit the waist of the student at all times and be hemmed to an appropriate length.

Wear appropriate shoes for school.

A.    Shoes must be appropriate to ensure safety on the playground.

C.    Socks, tights, or stockings must ALWAYS be worn.​

 FREE DRESS PRIVILEGES

Scholars may wear free dress on their birthdays.  When a birthday is on a weekend, scholars may have free dress on either Friday or Monday, as long as it is not a Church day.  Scholars with birthdays during June and July may have free dress on the second to last day of school.

Any student who abuses a free dress privilege will lose the privilege the next two times that it is offered to the scholars.

BIRTHDAY TREATS

​Due to the fact that there are students who may have food allergies and/or sensitivities, we ask that students do not bring edible treats (candy, doughnuts, pizza, etc.) on their birthdays. Students are encouraged to bring in items such as stickers, pencils and erasers for the class, or even donate a book to the classroom library.
