Dress Code

Academic Attire for Students 

All LBUSD K-8 schools require that students follow a uniform clothes policy.
Please read our guidelines so that you will be fully aware of what is and is not acceptable in student dress at Thomas Edison Elementary School.
Students are expected to be dressed in the appropriate uniform daily.
  

Thomas Edison School Uniform Policy

Uniform:

  • White, navy blue, or hunter green long/short sleeved shirts or blouses, with collars.

  • Navy blue, black, or Khaki long pants; dark blue or black jeans, shorts, skorts, or skirts.

  • Navy blue or hunter green sweatshirts without any logos (logos that are a quarter size are acceptable) unless they are Edison School sweatshirts.

  • Edison School spirit wear (available for purchase).

  • Leggings for girls must be dark blue or black.

Outerwear:

  • Heavy winter coats or jackets may be of any color, but we strongly encourage school colors.

Footwear:

  • Footwear must be closed at the heel and toe and worn with socks or tights.

Hats/Headgear:

In accordance with SB310, students may wear hats that comply with the American Cancer Society’s recommendations.  Any sun protective wear must be removed when inside buildings and classrooms. No inappropriate logos are allowed.

If your child comes to school without the proper attire, we will attempt to furnish the student with our reserve uniforms or we will call you to bring uniform clothing to school.

Attire That Does Not Meet Edison Uniform Expectations

  • No logos on T-shirts, sweatshirts, pullovers or jackets.

  • No shirts without a collar (exception Edison spirit wear).

  • No open toe or open heel shoes or sandals.

  • No sweatpants/nylon warm-up pants, short shorts, polyester sport shorts.

  • No bare midriffs (short shirts showing student’s skin)
