School Dress Code

Washington Elementary School has a uniform/dress code policy. This is an established policy approved by the Waukegan School Board. ALL students are expected to be in their official school uniforms every day. We believe that school uniforms instill in our students a sense of belonging and help strengthen school unity.

The official school colors are navy blue and white. Listed below you will find the types of clothing that will be acceptable at Washington School.

ACCEPTABLE:

  • BOTTOM:
    • Navy blue jumpers and skirts
    • Navy blue shorts and skorts
    • Navy blue pants

    • White or navy blue knit polo shirts with school name
    • Plain Navy blue or white sweaters
    • Navy blue or white Washington School sweatshirts (may be worn over white collared shirts and may be purchased through Washington School.)

NOTES:

  • Black shoes are encouraged, but gym shoes are acceptable.
  • Shorts under the skirt or jumper are highly recommended for girls on gym days.
  • Navy blue sweat pants (may be worn underneath skirts and jumpers on cold days but must be removed once students enter class)
