Oakbrook Preparatory School’s dress code
was established to provide a consistently attractive and neat appearance
for all students and to avoid peer pressure in matters of dress. Only
the official uniform and options are acceptable attire. Uniform options
vary slightly from grade to grade. The official uniform must be worn
for field trips, special functions, and picture days, while approved
options may be worn on other days. The only acceptable emblem, lettering,
or patch on hats, jackets, sweaters, or other clothing is the school’s
logo or crest. Students must have warm coats, head covering, and gloves
or mittens during the winter months. A parent will be called to bring
appropriate dress for field trips or for chronic dress code offenders.
Consequences for non-compliance with the school dress code are at
the discretion of the grade level director.
