Lower School Dress Code

We Dress for Success

The dress code in our Lower School is just one example of the high standards we expect from our students. The dress code lists examples of clothes that students may wear to school.

Why Do We Have Dress Code?

The goals of the Lower School dress code are as follows:

to help students distinguish between dress for school and dress for informal activities
to decrease the time spent pondering what one should wear
to decrease the time spent on enforcement of a dress code in order to concentrate on the core matters of learning and teaching
to provide neat and comfortable student dress options
to increase pride in appearance and in Severn School
to promote modesty in appearance (school clothing is expected to fit and be worn appropriately, at the discretion of the Lower School faculty and Lower School Head)

Clothing may be purchased from a variety of outlets, including Flynn & O'Hara School Uniforms and Land's End (school code 900053091).
