An integrated, place-based curriculum.

School uniform policy

The dress and grooming of the student body affect the educational environment and the climate for learning in our school. We believe that helping students become aware of the appropriate dress for various activities is part of the educational process. The nature of our curriculum demands that students have the correct clothing and footwear in order to be safe and to learn effectively.

Upper Garments:
Upper garment will consist of a dark blue, light blue or dark green polo shirt, which is defined as a shirt with two or three buttons and a collar or any shirt that is available through theDiscovery apparel line. Shirts must be plain (no writing of any kind unless it is the school logo) and hemmed at the appropriate length.

Lower Garments:
Lower garments will consist of appropriate jeans or navy/khaki pants or walking shorts. Pants and shorts must be properly fitted (not oversized). Jeans must not have holes, have embellishments or be overly tight. Shorts must be no shorter than three fingers above the knee. Any attire that is available through the Discovery apparel line is also acceptable.

Footwear:
Shoes or boots must have both closed heel and toe. Gym shoes or hiking shoes/boots are recommended. Sandals, Crocs, Heelys, light up shoes and heels of any kind are not acceptable.

Outerwear:
For cold weather, students must have heavy jackets, snow pants, hats, waterproof gloves/mittens and snow boots.

During the fall and spring seasons, students should have a light jacket or sweatshirt and a rain coat/poncho. It is recommended that a hat is available at all times to protect from sun and insects.

Students are expected to be dressed in a manner that will not be disruptive to the educational process, constitute a health or safety hazard or violate civil law. Any clothing or jewelry that is disruptive to the learning process is not permitted.

Any student who fails to meet the dress code guidelines may be sent home to retrieve their appropriate clothing. The final determination of appropriate dress will be made by the School Director.
