SCHOOL LOGOS - When ordering apparel that needs a school logo (sweatshirt, all of the fleece items) from Lands' End, please allow up to 12 business days, plus shipping time, for delivery.
PLEASE NOTE- Additions and Clarifications to the Uniform Policy
Lands' End added some items to their school uniform line, so we updated our uniform policy to reflect those additions. For K-5 Girls, additional options are: Hunter/Classic Navy Plaid Pleated Side-Buckle Jumper and Hunter/Classic Navy Plaid A-line Skirt
The following clarifications have been made to our uniform policy, effective immediately. These clarifications have been implemented in order to simplify the uniform for students, parents, and staff and allow for clear and consistent understanding of the uniform.
- Shoes - no Toms or ballet flats are allowed
- Socks - solid color black, green, blue or white; no logos or designs on socks; socks must be easily visible above the shoe
- No make-up is allowed with the exception of cover-up or foundation
- Only clear nail polish is allowed
- Boys' hair must be above their collar and out of their eyes; no facial hair is allowed for students (other than eyebrows)
