Carroll Lutheran School Dress Code
2022 – 2023
Shorts may only be worn until October 31st and after April 1st
Leggings/tights/knee socks should be worn
November 1st thru March 31st

Students attending Carroll Lutheran School are expected to present a neat and clean appearance. During the school day, all shirts must be tucked in neatly, with the exception of PE shirts. The dress code has been explicitly devised to help parents and students avoid confusion about what is to be worn to school. Each student is required to wear the complete uniform on the first day of school and thereafter, unless otherwise directed by the principal. Neatness and cleanliness in personal attire are very much part of a child’s education and are the responsibility of the parent.
