Uniform Policy

KIRKBRIDE’S DRESS CODE

Kirkbride students have always taken extreme pride in their appearance and dress in a manner exhibiting good taste. A committee of parents, students, and staff has formulated a uniform in compliance with the School District policy.

 

Uniform Policy:

It is important that we model professional expectations for our students each day, which starts with the way our Kirkbride students present themselves. Please support your child to follow the expectations of the uniform policy.

•  Students must wear a uniform each day to school.
• All students must wear ROYAL BLUE SHIRTS with a collar.
• All students must wear BLACK PANTS; girls may wear black skirts or jumpers with black tights only.
• All students must wear close-toed shoes and are advised to wear comfortable shoes

 

• Please note every student participates in recess and they will be running and playing each day; therefore, it is important that students wear comfortable clothing, especially footwear so they can participate and be active!
• On gym day only, students are permitted to wear loose-fitting, black sweat pants and a royal blue t-shirt.
• On cool days, students are permitted to wear plain (solid-colored) black, gray or royal blue sweaters over their collared shirts, or long-sleeved shirts of similar colors under their collared shirts.

 

 

 

NEVER PERMITTED:

• Denim pants (of any color)—uniform pants must be comfortable-fit, professional slacks
• Leggings, “jeggings,” skinny pants or other tight-fighting clothing. Please note that even on gym days, leggings are not appropriate school attire
• Ripped, torn or cut-off pants or clothing
• Logos (other than the Kirkbride logo), designs or un-approved colors
• Hooded sweatshirts, sweaters or jackets (no “hoodies”)
• Tights with designs or patterns under skirts or jumpers (must be black or nude).

 

*If you have any concerns about obtaining the proper school uniform for your child, please contact one of our school counselors, Ms. Jamison or Ms. Carly, and they can assist you.
