Uniform Policy

Uniforms are required on all school days with the exception of designated school “Spirit Days”. On these special days, students will be allowed to dress in accordance to the special theme for that day (e.g.; Colonial Day, Gold Rush Day, or other school theme). Students may also wear their scout uniforms (Brownie, Cub, Girl, Camp Fire, etc.) on the days when they have meetings immediately following school. On Fridays, students may wear their “Spirit T-Shirts, Walk-A-Thon or School Group T-Shirts”. The pants, shorts, shirts and socks are available at any retail store but the girl’s plaid jumper and plaid skirt must be purchased at Merry Mart.  The PTA also sells spirit socks and spirit shirts.

Uniform Closet

Our PTA maintains a Uniform Closet near the cafeteria.  Donated uniforms are used as “loaners” if a student has a spill during the school day. We also have occasional uniform sales which are publicized in advance in the weekly Lion’s Roar.  If you are in need of a uniform or have uniform pieces to donate, please check with the school office.
