DRESS CODE

We want our students to reflect the fact that they are God’s children and His ambassadors.  All of us also are committed to the goals expressed in our school’s vision statement.  Girls (and boys) in grades 5-8 are not to wear clothing that may be distracting, that may interfere with learning and could perhaps cause unnecessary competition.  Such clothing includes tank tops and tops with spaghetti straps.  Sleeves are required for both boys and girls. Tops must be long enough that no skin is showing between top and bottom. If we see such clothing, students may be given one of the school's sport shirts to wear for the day. We count on students and their parents to use discretion regarding low necklines and any logos that may be on clothes. Students are not to wear jeans (or other pants) with holes in them to school.

All students are encouraged to wear their TCS T-shirts (or at least something navy blue) on Wednesdays.  Every Wednesday is a Welcome Wednesday, kind of an on-going open house for prospective parents.

Many kids wear sandals to school.  That’s acceptable, but they still need indoor white-soled running shoes.  Students must have their regular outdoor running shoes for outdoor phys. ed. classes.  Trying to participate in sandals is just not effective. Students are not allowed to walk around in their bare feet for obvious health reasons.
