allowed to participate in gym class.
 Uniform Violations
Violations of the school uniform policy will result in a detention. School
uniforms are to be worn by all students from the first to the last day of school.
If for any reason a child cannot be in uniform on a given day, the parent must
send a written excuse to the teacher. A warning slip will be issued. A detention
will be incurred for the next infraction of the uniform policy. Leaving a
uniform at a friend’s house or having a uniform in the wash are not acceptable
excuses for being out of uniform. Children will be allowed to wear gym shoes
