In a society where consumerism attempts to define social position and where self-worth is established by price, label or the logo which appears on clothing, our Standard Dress Code stands as a reminder that the real worth of the individual is in what he or she accomplishes with the gifts God has given him\/her. We (parents, students, and staff) have to work together to ensure that the students are wearing the appropriate dress.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On dress down and dress up days, students are expected to dress appropriately for school. No pajama pants, plunging necklines, short shorts\/skirts, tank tops, clothing with spaghetti straps or backless shoes are allowed.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Girls &amp; Boys<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Pope John polo shirt colors are navy blue, hunter green, gold, white and maize (soft yellow).<\/li>\n<li>Short-sleeve polo shirts may be worn with a white short-sleeve t-shirt underneath, no long sleeve or colored shirts may be worn underneath the short-sleeve polo.<\/li>\n<li>Pants\/shorts: Khaki (tan), navy blue, and blue jeans (regular style \u2013 no faded stages of color, no extra zippers, holes or frayed at seams or hem); if khaki or navy pants or shorts have pockets, the pockets are to be flat and neat in appearance.
