SCHOOL UNIFORM POLICY

The mandatory uniform policy includes steps to follow when students are not in compliance. Efforts will remain positive and include incentives to ensure compliance and may occasionally include free days which will be designated by the school; parents will be informed well in advance regarding special dress days, i.e. Spirit Week, etc. New students to the school will have seven school days in which to purchase and begin wearing the uniform.

Non-compliance: After all positive efforts and incentives have proven to be ineffective in bringing the non-compliant student (s) into compliance, corrective action will be taken and will include parent notification, parent conferences, and finally, an option for the student to be reassigned to a school that does not have a mandatory school uniform policy. Please note, in the event your child is reassigned to another school no transportation will be provided. After three compliance violations, the reassignment process will occur. Further details will be addressed under separate notification.
