Epiphany school uniform policy

Epiphany School is an independent school with no religious affiliation. We welcome students and families of all races, religions, and national or ethnic origins.

Uniforms are an Epiphany School tradition. We believe they contribute to our school's strong sense of community, support our school values of equity and inclusion, and allow students to focus on their learning. Families appreciate the ease of uniforms, and a robust used-uniform program keeps costs low and availability high.

Epiphany School students in kindergarten through fifth grade wear uniforms. Epiphany School has two sets of uniforms: regular and dress (see sidebar for more details). All students are allowed to wear any of the approved uniform pieces. There are no gender specific uniform pieces. Students may wear dress uniform pieces on regular uniform days, but only dress uniform pieces are allowed on dress uniform days. Families are asked to purchase all uniform pieces (with the exception of shoes, socks, tights, and belt) from Lands’ End, the GAP, or Old Navy. Gently used items are also available at the school’s annual uniform sale, held on campus several times per year. Pieces from our former uniform vendor, Dennis Uniform, can also be worn. 

A note about outerwear: Regular uniform and dress uniform is worn in the classrooms; outerwear (ie: hoodies, jackets, hats, spiritwear) should only be worn outdoors. 

A note about shoes: A pair of "clean-sole" (non-marking) athletic shoes are required for PE; please note these shoes will stay at school for the year. For daily wear, all students are encouraged to wear athletic shoes that allow them to run, play, climb, and participate fully in all activities at recess and outdoors. Students may not wear shoes that are open-toed or open-heeled as these pose a safety risk, including sandals, Tevas, Keens, clogs, and Crocs. On dress uniform days, dress shoes are recommended but daily athletic shoes are also allowed, provided they follow the footwear guidelines in our handbook.
