- A uniform policy cannot possibly address all situations. However, the effectiveness of any uniform policy requires the support and co- operation of the students and parents. Common sense and good manners always prevail.
- During the school year, policies may be altered or added as required. The following disciplinary steps will be taken for uniform policy violations: 1st violation — parent contact (if the violation is on a full-dress uniform day, parents must bring proper clothing to school when the call is made; 2nd violation—student will serve after school study detention; 3rd violation—student will serve after school work detail detention.
