School Uniform Policy

The HCMS school community has developed the Uniform Policy for appropriate clothing and appearance. The Unifrom Policy regulates student dress so respect for oneself and pride in our community is shown. The policy has been determined based on preserving students' safety and health, understanding appropriate dress in preparation for life situations, and presenting a positive image. All clothes should be neat, clean, and in good repair.

Toddler Level
Toddler level students are exempt from the color and logo requirements of the uniform policy. Children should dress simply and suitably. Sneakers and leather shoes are both acceptable. NO flip-flops, sandals, high-heels, Crocs/croc-style, or open-toed shoes are allowed.
