UNIFORM POLICY
GRADES K-8
The Board of Education approved a mandatory School Uniform Policy for all kindergarten through grade 8 students beginning September 1996. This decision was strongly supported by a parent survey. Students are expected to wear uniforms daily. Non-uniform days will be announced. Please note that on such days, students are expected to dress according to district standards with no prohibited attire.
