It has been great to have students back on campus this week and for the most part, students were dressed appropriately in school uniform. The one area that needs some attention are school pants, which tended to be an issue more for our Grade 9 and 10 students.
The summary shared in last week’s Enews is below, however specifically for pants is the need to have plain pants, they should be free of any logos and should be of appropriate length. PE shorts are not part of the High School uniform.
Our dress code policy can be found in the online student handbook under ‘Uniform and Dress Code’.
For a quick summary please note the following:
- School pants can be purchased from the bookstore, but we do allow non-bookstore pants, so long as they are in the same design limitations. Pants must be appropriate length (defined as 1/3 of the hip to knee). Tighter pants are allowed however, spandex and ‘branded’ sports pants are not allowed.
- Hoodies and sweaters must be purchased from the Booster Hut. All other team hoodies are not to be worn on Monday to Thursday.
- Every Friday students will have a specific focused alternative dress day in which they will be able to wear ISB Team-wear, class shirts, ISB club wear or themed dress as per the planned schedule for that week. Our Student Council will be sharing these dress days with students directly.
- Footwear should be comfortable, practical and safe. Open toe shoes are not allowed such as slippers and flip flop sandals.
Please note that in the first two weeks of school back on campus, we understand that some students will still be purchasing new uniforms if they have not been able to get to campus prior to this time. It would be appreciated if parents can check uniforms as your child gets back into practice. After October break, any student not in uniform will be required to purchase the right uniform from the ISB Bookstore.
