Dress Code

  • The parents and staff of John Adams Elementary adopted a school uniform policy for the school year 2007-2008.  The purpose of wearing uniforms is for students to view school as a workplace for teaching and learning.  Our school culture will be improved by the students' enhanced equality, self-respect, sense of pride, ownership in themselves, their school, and community.  Uniforms are worn to further a safe academic environment and to support Goal 3 in the District's Strategic Aims.
         
    Uniforms may be purchased at any store (J. C. Penney's catalog, Dollar General, Wal-Mart, etc.) that carries the required dress list.

    Girl's Uniforms

    • Navy, black or khaki shorts, slacks

    Boy's Uniforms

    Recess and physical education classes make it very dangerous for children to wear sandals/flip-flops, or slides.  Please let your child wear tennis shoes to school every day.
