Schools of Early Learning and Grammar Dress Code

The mission of Trinity’s dress code is to uphold a high standard of neatness and modesty of appearance free from distraction and conducive to a beautiful learning environment that makes room for comfort, student choice, and individual expression.

Students not in compliance with the dress code will be required to change into clothing that is compliant. Student drivers will be required to go home to change and return to school in a timely manner. Parents will be notified of the need to bring clothing to school or that their child will go home to change.
