Sauk Dress Code

Posted Date: 8/19/24 (11:37 AM)

DRESS STANDARDS 

Since Sauk Elementary School is a place of learning, it is expected that  students will adhere to a modified dress code. The dress code is a positive  contributing factor to our continued success as it helps to improve school climate and allows students to focus on education. 

Upper Garments 

Upper garments will consist of white or blue (any shade) polo shirts and/or collared dress shirts. Shirts must be plain (void of writing) and hemmed at the appropriate length. Emblems may be no larger than one square inch. Shirts may be long or short-sleeved. White undershirts or turtlenecks may be worn underneath, as weather requires. Plain (void of writing) black, white, or navy hoodless knit sweaters can be worn over a blue or white polo or collared shirt as weather requires. Shirts must be tucked in at all times. 

On specified days, students will be permitted  

to wear Sauk “Spirit Wear” tops. 

Lower Garments 

Lower garments will be navy blue, black, or khaki dress slacks, shorts, skirts,  or dresses. Lower garments must fit properly (not oversized or excessively tight). More specifically, waistbands are to be fitted at the waist and pants/shorts can only flair to a safe width. All pants/shorts with belt loops must have a belt or suspenders at all times. Please note: shorts/skirts must be at least the length of your longest finger when your arm and hand are completely extended to your side. Also, unacceptable school wear are all denim  (including black and blue jeans), stretch material (such as but not limited to  Leggings or Jeggings) or excessive wide-pants. Hosiery must be a solid  color—that is, flesh tone, white, blue, black (colors that align with the  uniform.)

• Jackets, coats, hats, head coverings (scarves/bandanas), gloves,  sunglasses, or other forms of “outerwear” are to be removed during the school day. (Students with a note from a physician may be exempt from  this guideline.) 

• Large purses, and bags (including sports bags or backpacks/suitcases) that cannot fit into a locker are not permitted. 

• Chain belts, studded belts, and large chain necklaces are prohibited. Rubber bands (or other elastic material) may not be used to secure/roll pants. • Attire (including jewelry or any other accessories) that advertises/promotes or depicts alcoholic beverages, tobacco products,  drugs, gangs, nudity, harassment, acts of violence, or profanity are prohibited. 

• Male students may not wear earrings. (Band-Aids cannot be used  to cover earrings.) 

• Brief attire (including but not limited to beachwear or pajama/pajama-like clothing) is unacceptable. More specifically, tank tops, halter tops, spaghetti-strapped dresses or blouses, strapless clothing, and boxer shorts are inappropriate for school. 

• Shoes must cover the entire foot. Shoes/laces must be the same. Only one lace can be worn per shoe.
