A dress code fosters a sense of pride, self-respect, and a better atmosphere for learning.  Parents can be very instrumental in helping children look their best and in being considerate of how their appearance affects others.

The standardized policy for grades Kindergarten through 8th grade has been designed to help parents and students maintain a neat appearance school-wide.  Students in the ECE classes should wear age-appropriate clothing.

Cold Weather Dress Code
Faith Lutheran School (Logo) jackets, sweaters, fleece or sweatshirts may be worn at any time in the classroom or school buildings (this includes Faith Lutheran School athletic jackets and sweatshirts).  While we recognize that the weather may call for additional outerwear to be worn to school, students may only wear Faith Lutheran School jackets, sweaters, fleece or sweatshirts in the classroom and school building.
Field Trip and Choir Performances
Uniforms for both field trips and choir performances will be the same as regular uniform clothing unless the teacher specifies otherwise.  For example, if a class is going someplace where dresses are not appropriate the teacher will list what should be worn on the field trip permission slip, such as red shirts and khaki bottoms.
Sports Team Dress Code
Athletes may wear team uniforms on game days.  See athletic handbook for guidelines.
Dress Code Enforcement
  1. First thing each morning, as the teacher does daily housekeeping routines (i.e. lunch count, attendance, pledge, etc.) they will complete dress code infraction form for anyone who is dressed inappropriately.
  2. For each month, consequences for not dressing properly are as follows:
    • First Infraction – Parents will receive email stating infraction.
    • Second Infraction – Parents will receive email stating infraction.
    • Third Infraction – Parents will receive email stating NO Uniform Today (NUT) Day privileges (including “special” NUT days or Spirit Days) for the month.
    • Fourth Infraction – Student will receive detention.
    • Fifth Infraction – Student will be sent to office and parents will be called to bring proper clothing.
    • Sixth Infraction – Referral to School Ministry Board.
  3. On the last Friday of each month, every child who has no more than two (2) infractions of the dress code will get a No Uniform Today (NUT) day on that Friday. Students who have three (3) infractions will have to wear their regular uniform.
No Uniform Today (NUT) Guidelines
If a student earns a No Uniform Today (NUT) day the last Friday of the month (or for any special NUT Days or Spirit Days), the following guidelines will be in place:
  • All clothing will be size appropriate.
  • Clothing should be neat, clean, and in good repair.
  • Underwear may not show at any time.
  • Pants/shorts must be worn ABOVE the hip line.
  • Skirts/shorts must be fingertip length or longer.
  • Caps/hats are NOT allowed in the school buildings.
  • A student’s midriff should not be exposed when he/she is walking, raising his/her hand, bending over, or engaging in any other activity.
  • Sleeveless shirts may be worn, but tank tops may not.
  • Clothing with inappropriate designs or expressions may not be worn
  • No backless or toeless sandals should be worn.
If clothing is deemed inappropriate by the school administration, parents will be notified to provide the student with NUT day-compliant clothing. Failing that, students may be given a school or PE uniform to wear.
Spirit Days
Every Friday that is not a No Uniform Today (NUT) day will be considered a Spirit Day.  At this time students may wear any Faith Lutheran School shirt (regular uniform shirts, spirit shirts, sports booster items, PE shirts, etc.). The students must wear uniform shorts, skirts, skorts or pants.  The shirts must be appropriate size and condition.  They must be tucked in throughout the day.
ECE Dress Code
Clothing for ECE students should be appropriate for school and encourage independence. The clothing should be easy to manipulate by the child, simple, comfortable, appropriately sized, washable, and weather friendly. Elastic waist pants or shorts with no belts are easy for children to get off and use in the bathroom, especially when they wait until the last minute to go.
 
Please avoid overalls, belts, and clothing with snaps or straps which can cause frustration for young children when developing toileting skills.
 
If children need a change of clothes, either due to an accident or a spill, they feel independent and successful when they can do it themselves. Shorts or leggings should be worn underneath skirts or dresses.
 
For safety reasons, children must wear tennis shoes or soft-soled shoes that strap to the heel. NO BOOTS, BALLET SHOES, FLIP-FLOPS, JELLIES, CLOGS, OPEN-HEEL SHOES, OR CROCS MAY BE WORN.
 
All children will need to bring a change of clothes in a labeled gallon-sized storage bag to leave at school (socks and underwear included.)  All outerwear and accessories should be labeled with the child’s name.
