Daily Uniform Statement The goal is for the uniform to enhance student performance, decrease competition in dress, teach the students a level of professionalism, and is important to the overall discipline, and spirit of the school. Parents must monitor their children’s appearance and general attitudes of the latest trends and styles. Students attending school with unacceptable clothing, hair color, body piercing, and tattoos can cause unnecessary class disturbances. Noncompliance will be handled by school administration. Parents are to follow these guidelines and help to enforce the uniform policy so that the teachers and school staff can concentrate on the education of your child.
Uniforms are required for all students of Assumption School. Full uniforms are to be worn from the first day of school until the end of the school year. Parents are asked to cooperate by seeing that their children always wear only the regulation dress. . Dress and Grooming Policy (4303.6) Students are expected to dress and present an appearance consistent with standards of good taste and appropriate for school and school events. Any dress or wearing of insignia which conveys the image of gang membership, supports the beliefs of hate groups, makes sexual innuendos, or promotes drugs, alcohol, or tobacco is inappropriate for school and should not be allowed.
Dress Code (ABVM Board) Our school has established the following uniform/dress guidelines that all clothing must be clean, in good condition, and of proper fit. The administration has the right and responsibility of final judgment of what is appropriate or inappropriate with regard to the uniform policy. Note: If something is not listed in this section, it is not a part of the school uniform or general dress code.

Pre-K T-shirts and Totes
Please dress your child for play! We will be playing outside, painting, cooking and using sensory materials and we want the children to feel free to explore the classroom and all materials without worrying about their clothes. The uniform t-shirt (Gray for 3 year olds, Navy for 4 year olds) and comfortable pants/shorts are required, along with tennis shoes and socks. Tennis shoes are the safest for classroom and playground use and result in fewer accidents. Please dress your child appropriately for any type of weather, as we go outside daily, even when it is hot or cold. Labeling your child’s belongings will ensure that lost items find their way back to their rightful owner. (The “old” gray preschool t-shirts are no longer part of our uniform. Please purchase the assigned grade level colored t-shirt) There will be a designated spirit wear day, you may purchase a spirit wear t-shirt to wear on this day. This is not required.
