Dress Code

As the beginning of school approaches and you begin to purchase uniform items, please keep in mind the West Clayton Elementary Uniform Dress guidelines.  We are requesting all parents to support our school as we increase student safety, school identity and pride, while improving student behavior and academic achievement.  Our goal is to have all students show their sense of unity by arriving to school in uniform dress on the first day of school and each day of the week for the remainder of the school year.  There are many potential benefits of uniform dress including:

  • Helping parents and students resist peer pressure;

  • Helping students concentrate on their school work; and

  • Helping school officials recognize intruders who come to the school.

The following information on uniform dress is provided to assist parents and students with shopping choices for the school year.
