Girls will be allowed to wear khaki, navy blue and black skirts. The length should be one inch above the knee or longer.

Shorts:
Students will be allowed to wear non-denim, non-mesh, and non-sweat pant material khaki, navy blue or black, solid-colored shorts. The length should be appropriate (two inches above the knee or longer).

Students must wear sneakers to school. Students may wear snow/rain boots to school but must change into sneakers upon arrival. Light up shoes in the middle school must be turned off. Shoes with wheels are not permitted. Slip on shoes like "crocs" and UGGs are not permitted.

Undershirts/T-Shirts:
If students choose to wear a short or long-sleeved shirt under their uniform that can be seen, the shirt must be solid-colored white, grey, red, navy blue or black.

Accessories:
Distracting accessories, such as but not limited to suspenders, non-prescription eyewear, scarves, bandanas, chain wallets, gothic jewelry, etc. are not permitted.

Uniform:
No student should attend school without a uniform but no student will be denied school for the day because of a lack of uniform. Students who come to school out of uniform will be given a uniform for the day and the parent will be called by the classroom teacher to inform them of the issue. If a student is out of uniform a second time a parent meeting will be required and parent will bring in uniform.  Any further violations will activate an expectation meeting and consequences will be made as determined by the school administration.

Ordering:
Any items requiring the school logo may be ordered from Darter Specialties
