Dress Code Reminder

Please take a moment to ensure your child/ren are in compliance with our school dress code.  Please note the following items in particular:

1) Girls’ skorts may be NO MORE than one inch above the knee cap.

2) Shirts must be TUCKED IN during the school day.  If your child’s shirt is too short and becomes untucked when they sit down, it is time to move up a size.

We have a lot of days left in the school year so if your child’s uniform is not in compliance, please visit the SJS Uniform Closet** or order from one of our uniform vendors within the next few days.  Thank you for your attention to this.

**Please remember you can visit our uniform closet to see if there are any uniform that will be better fitting for your child. Hours for the Uniform Closet are before 7:45am, after 2:00pm, or by appointment through Mrs. Sager.

Also, please be sure your children are dressed appropriately for the cold weather. Students should have winter coats, hats, and gloves as they will continue to go outside for recess, weather permitting.
