School Uniform at LCE


Each spring our School Improvement Council provides a survey for our families.  The survey includes questions asking if our families support  wearing school uniforms.  Over the past 5 years approximately 75% of our community has consistently indicated on the survey that they support students wearing school uniforms.  As students get older they tend to share that they do not like wearing a school uniform so we have focused on having Fridays as a choice dress day. 

Our learning community is wonderful for so many reasons and being a “uniform school” certainly helps our success.  Many of our students are choosing not to wear a uniform so our hope is that we can find ways to encourage uniform participation.  We have a variety of uniform options for our students. Uniform shirt colors are hunter green, navy blue, burgundy, or white, as well as any school spirit wear. The uniform bottoms are navy blue or khaki. We want them to know that a uniform does look great on them.

We will not mandate that students wear uniforms but encourage our families do this.  Our hope is our families will share with their children the benefits and take advantage of this opportunity.  Thanks for your support!
