Uniform Reminders and Updates for 2010-2011
5/27/102010-2011 Uniform Reminders/Additions:
All students should be in compliance with the uniform guidelines the first day of school. Any student who is not, will receive a letter from the homeroom teacher regarding what uniform regulation is not being met.
The following are updates to the uniform code for the 2010-2011 school year.
• School Mass Uniform:
o Girls – jumper, skirt, skort, or navy blue pants
o Boys – long pants
Due to the warmer temperature in Louisiana in August and September, boys will be allowed to wear shorts to Mass.
• Uniform Length: The length of all girls’ and boys’ shorts and girls’ skirts, skorts, and jumpers must be touching the knee.
We realize that students grow over the summer. Parents may want to wait to have uniforms hemmed until the end of July in order to meet the uniform requirements.
• Pants: The cut of the pants for girls and boys cannot be tapered in.
• Tennis Shoes: Must be the traditional low quarter (low cut) style with shoe laces. Skateboard style shoes are not allowed. The laces must be traditionally tied. The majority of the shoe and laces must be predominately solid white, navy, gray or black. Shoes with characters, patterns, velcro, zippers, or wheels are not allowed. Please note light blue has been removed and a shoe with any type of pattern (plaid, checker board, etc.) is not allowed.
• Spirit Shirt: The Home and School Association spirit shirt is changing for the 2010-2011 school year. There will be a two year transition period. An order form will be sent out in August.
