Uniforms
At TASIS Dorado, we take pride in our school's colors, emblems, and mascot, #TDBearPride, and expect students to embrace this sentiment while wearing their uniform. Our school clothing, while comfortable, should be neat and respectful, reflecting our values of personal and academic excellence. Research shows that wearing a school uniform creates a sense of unity and belonging, helps reduce distractions so students remain focused on their studies, and extends students' sleep, as uniforms eliminate the pressure of choosing a daily outfit.
The dress code is checked daily and violations will be reported to elementary or secondary division leadership. Students who violate the uniform guidelines will be required to change into the appropriate uniform before returning to the classroom. Repeated violations of the uniform policy will result in a formal disciplinary response.
All TASIS Dorado students are required to wear our Lands' End school uniform appropriate for the grade level and activity. Below is important information regarding our school uniform policy and expectations by division.
