Uniforms

We are a uniform school. The purpose of Dan Mini’s School Uniform Policy is to provide opportunities for increased school safety, to encourage our students to experience a greater sense of school identity and belonging and to encourage a focus on academic excellence. That being said, Dan Mini scholars are highly encouraged and expected to wear the following uniforms Monday through Friday.

• Shirts: Shirts should be collared, white, black, or navy blue. They may be with or without the Dan Mini School logo.
• Bottoms: The uniform bottoms should be navy blue, black, or khaki. Bottoms may be slacks, knee-length walking shorts, skorts, skirts, or jumpers. Pants must not appear saggy or baggy. A black belt may be worn.
• Sweatshirts/Jackets/Sweaters: Sweatshirts and jackets should be solid navy blue, black or gray. Sweaters should be solid navy blue, black, or gray.
• Shoes: Shoes should be closed-toe and closed back; no slipper-like shoes, Crocs, or flip flops. Students play and exercise daily and need comfortable, sturdy shoes to play and work safely.

All scholars are expected to wear the school uniform.  However, there is a “Statement of exemption from the Standardized Dress Requirement” form that parents must complete if they wish their child not to wear the school uniform. It is located in the school office. All scholars are expected to wear uniforms unless an exemption has been requested and approved.
