Why Uniforms Matter at Cedar Hill Prep
Cedar Hill Prep students are expected to be neat, clean and dressed in uniform at all times unless given permission by the administration to be out of uniform. There are many positive reasons for a school dress code, including
Additionally, a dress code can be greatly important to matters of student self-esteem and self-respect. Taking pride in the way they look is the first step toward taking pride and accountability in the work that our students do at CHP. We want all of our students to feel their very best and dressing for success is a crucial part of developing that confidence.
1. Creating a Respectful Academic Environment
A respectful academic atmosphere where every student feels a sense of professional etiquette and arrives each morning ready to face the assignments of the day.
2. Instilling Pride Through Appearance
A good impression made on both peers, parents and teachers that showcases a sense of pride in their appearance and their role within our community.
3. Fostering a Sense of Community
A shared sense of community as all students recognize an aesthetic camaraderie among their peers.
4. Minimizing Disruptive Behavior
Fewer potentially maladaptive or rebellious behaviors that may first be manifested through expression of clothing.
5. Teaching Responsibility from Home
A lesson in boundaries, expectations, and responsibility that begins every day before the students even leave their home.
Quality Uniforms with Comfort in Mind
We have partnered with the clothing company Lands’ End in order to offer our students and their families high quality clothing that is both durable and fashionable. While shoes can be purchased outside of the Lands’ End options for wardrobe it is advisable that students wear comfortable shoes for staying active across our campus, both between classes and while outside.
All uniform shoes are no longer available from Lands End and now can be purchased from any store.
**Please Note Sweat Shirts, Sweaters, and Blazers must be purchased from Lands End**
