Dress-Down Days:
The school occasionally designates dress-down days when students can be out of uniform. On these days, students may wear shorts or nice blue jeans. T-shirts must be free of objectionable words or images, and not be a typical undershirt. Girls’ choice of clothing should not be too revealing or tight (i.e., no spaghetti straps, short shorts, short tops that reveal waistlines, or Soffees that are too tight). Footwear for students should not be too casual (i.e., no slippers or flimsy beach-style flip-flops). Pajama pants and other sleepwear are not permitted.
