Dress Code

We take pride in the appearance of our students. Their dress reflects the quality of the school, their
conduct and their schoolwork. The complete uniform is to be worn to and from school. While at school,
uniforms must be neat in appearance; shirts and blouses must be tucked in, boys should have belts to
maintain a neat appearance. Gum chewing is not allowed.

are to be worn with a light blue blouse with a round collar, a monogrammed uniform polo shirt, or a light
blue turtleneck purchased from the uniform company.

allowed. If at any time a second layer is needed for warmth, a monogrammed school sweater (crew,
v-neck, vest or cardigan) may be worn. No other sweaters are allowed.
