To enable students to reach high academic standards, the school has put in place a dress code designed to reduce distractions and competitions. Implementing a simple, flexible, cost-effective dress code promotes student learning and increased academic instruction time. Interpretation of the Dress Code is at the principal and staff’s discretion and their decision is final.
The personal grooming of students should be in accord with the standards set by the uniform dress code. Students should be clean and neat when at school.
Writing or marking on skin is not permitted.
White, light blue, navy, or burgandy (6-8 students only) shirts with collars and sleeves (includes turtlenecks, long or short sleeves, cotton, or knit) must be worn. Shirts must be tucked in at all times. No more than two top buttons may be unbuttoned.
Brown, black, navy, or burgundy shoes, loafer type or casual dress, with heels no higher than one inch must be worn. Shoes must be closed-toed and closed-heeled. Solid color white, brown, navy, or black athletic/tennis shoes are permitted. Boots are not permitted.
Shoes must be tied at all times.
Solid color navy, white, light blue, or burgundy crew-neck, v-neck sweaters, sweater vests, and cardigan sweaters may be worn over collared uniform shirts. Sweatshirts and jackets are not permitted inside the building, except for Queen’s Grant logo sweatshirts, fleece jackets and pullover jackets.
Hats or headscarves of any kind are not permitted.
Extreme hairstyles are not permitted. Hair color for boys and girls must be of natural tones.

Each month, students are permitted to wear jeans and college or Queen’s Grant shirts for $1 each. All money collected from these special days is donated to a predetermined charity or other worthy cause.
Denim jeans, skirts, jumpers, etc. are acceptable.
College shirts may be jerseys, t-shirts, or sweatshirts.
Queen’s Grant shirts may be “Invest in a Child” t-shirts, any Queen’s Grant field trip-related shirt, K-Team t-shirts, or other Queen’s Grant shirt.
Occasionally, students may be rewarded with a Go NUTS, or No Uniform to School day. On these days, students may wear clothing of their choice that is appropriate in nature. Items not
permitted include inappropriate/offensive language/pictures on shirts, spaghetti straps, tank tops, midriffs, halter tops, etc. Shorts/skirts, etc. must fall no less than two inches above the

In all cases, the principal is the sole determiner of dress code adherence. The dress code may be altered on special days as approved by the principal. If further clarification of the dress code is needed, please contact the school office for assistance.
