Students may not wear jackets, coats and non-Link sweaters or sweatshirts in school at any time. Students should have a school sweater or sweatshirt with them during cold winter months every day as temperatures fluctuate in the school building.

If a child wears a garment for religious reasons, parents need to inform and discuss this with the Dean of Students or Principal.

Students should arrive at and leave the school in their school uniform. Students participating in athletic activities after school may leave the building in the clothing they wear for that activity.

    On occasion students are permitted to have out of uniform days (“Dress Down” or “Dress Up” days), but must be dressed neatly and in a manner that is appropriate for school.No apparel may be worn that administrators judge to be too revealing and that distract from the educational environment, including ripped or torn jeans and cropped or halter shirts or tops. Furthermore, any clothing that denotes gang affiliations is inappropriate for a school setting. Out of uniform days are not at the discretion of students, but will be announced by a school administrator.
