Uniforms

EECS believes that uniforms will help set an environment that is conducive to learning.  We expect our students to dress in a manner that enhances formal behavior and academic learning.  Our policy is designed to reflect pride and enhance the learning environment of our students by establishing an attitude of high expectations.  Students are encouraged to come to school dressed for success-clean, well-groomed, comfortable and dressed appropriately for the weather.  Uniforms will help create a sense of community and group identity among the student body at EECS and will help student’s better concentrate on their work and less on the latest fashions. Students are expected to wear their uniforms every day, including field trip days.  Students should wear gym uniforms ONLY on the days they have gym class.

Students can earn one out of uniform school day each month

All students will be expected to come to school in uniform on the first day of school and there on.  The school uniform policy will be enforced on a daily basis.  If students do not comply, the following consequences will occur:

1 or 2 times out of uniform:  A call will be made home for the uniform to be brought to school and a uniform reminder note will be sent home, which will indicate that your child will not be accepted at school the next day if they come out of uniform.

3 or more times out of uniform: Child is sent home automatically and a meeting will be arranged with the parent and teacher. 

An out of uniform day will be earned if students have no uniform policy violations for that month.
