SCHOOL UNIFORM DRESS CODE & GUIDELINES
Policy:
• Our objective is to adhere to an adopted uniform policy that is conducive to providing an optimal learning environment with limited distractions and with consideration for safety and school identity.
• The final decision regarding appropriate dress and grooming is left to the discretion of the school administration and teachers.
• Clothing, hair and/or accessories should never be distracting in the classroom.
