Dress Code

PLEASE LABEL YOUR CHILD'S NAME CLEARLY ON ALL ITEMS SENT INTO SCHOOL.

FOOTWEAR SAFETY

As we try to maximize the amount of physical activity the children have during the day, it is important that they wear safe footwear.

• No sneakers with wheels on them (wheelies).
• No crocs of any color
• No Naot or flip-flops

BUDS & KINDERGARTEN

Please dress your child in comfortable clothing to ensure their enjoyment of the day. Children should not be afraid to get dirty or messy. Please also dress children appropriately for the changing seasons. We will be going outdoors twice daily barring severely inclement weather. Specifically, in the wintertime, appropriate dress includes hats, gloves/mittens, jackets, boots and snow pants.

All boys should wear a kippah or hat daily. As soon as boys are toilet trained, they are also expected to wear tzitzit.

Friday is special because it is Erev Shabbat. We would like the children to dress for their Shabbat Parties. We will not be painting in school on Fridays.
