Uniform updates

----------

These changes apply to the whole school:

·         Lands End changed the gym short so we had to update our option.

·         We felt that it was time to update the gym pants option to a more current jogger pant.

·         Please note that we have ADDED the opportunity for girls to wear leggings to school but if you choose to purchase black or navy leggings from somewhere besides Lands End, the leggings must be close fitting. Only solid color black or navy leggings will be allowed.

·         In addition, girls must wear socks with leggings and leggings may ONLY be worn with dresses, jumpers and skirts. Leggings may not be worn with gym shorts.


In grades 5-8 there is a more significant change to the relaxed uniform.

·         The shorts, pants and skorts will now be Classic Navy instead of khaki.

·         The polo shirt for boys and girls will now be gray heather instead of navy.

·         There is a grandfather period of one (1) year during which the navy shirts and khaki bottoms may be worn however, please do not mix the old and new items (don’t use a gray shirt with khaki bottoms).
