Your students are growing! If skirts are higher than just above the knee or if shirts are always coming un-tucked, it might mean that the hem of the skirt needs to be let out or that the skirt or shirt is too small.
We are doing a uniform reset this week. Please look at your student's agenda to see whether they receive any uniform infractions. Three infractions will result in a detention and a phone call home from Mr. Brogan. Here is a short list of the uniform issues that we will be looking for:
q Colored nail polish
q No belt
q Dangle or hoop earrings
q Bracelets/rings
q Non-school sweaters in class
q Patterns or distracting/oversized logos on jackets
q Necklaces untucked
q No-show socks
q Stretch material tan pants (jeggings) for 5th/6th grade students
q Non-school or house colored hair bows
q Smart watches
q Shoes that are not Saddle shoes, ALL white or ALL black
d You can also read pages 94-99 of the Lower School Family Handbook for more detailed uniform guidelines.
