Uniform and Dress Code Policy

Daily uniforms are required for students in grades 1-8, as outlined immediately below. Parents are encouraged to label all items with the student’s name. 
Lands’ End is our exclusive uniform provider. Call 800-963-4816 or visit www.landsend.com. (School Code – 900096512). 

GSL occasionally designates Dress Uniform days that require students in grades 1-8 to wear the Dress Uniform as outlined farther below in the Dress Uniform Guidelines. Dress Uniform days will be communicated to families in advance. Because Middle Schoolers are expected to take on greater levels of accountability, students in grades 5-8 who do not wear the complete Dress Uniform on a designated day will be required to wear Dress Uniform the following school day.

Other Important Dress Code Notes

Footwear
Footwear must be clean and in good condition. For safety reasons, students in grades 1-4 are not permitted to wear backless shoes. Platform or high-heeled shoes greater than two inches are prohibited for all students.

Masks/Face Coverings
Masks are not required indoors at GSL, regardless of vaccination status. Masking continues to be recommended, and the GSL community will respect the decision of any individual who chooses to wear a mask. 

Outerwear
Students can wear any jacket, coat, and hat for outside wear, but these items may not be worn in the classroom. Only GSL Spirit Wear fleeces and sweatshirts, or Lands’ End uniform sweaters may be worn inside the classroom.

Dress-Down Days
GSL occasionally designates dress-down days when students can be out of uniform. On these days, students may wear shorts or nice blue jeans. T-shirts must be free of objectionable words or images, and must not be a typical undershirt. Choice of clothing should not be too revealing or tight. All skirts, skorts, and shorts should be no more than 4 inchces above the knee. Footwear for students should be safe. Pajama pants and other sleepwear are not permitted.
