    Occasionally students will have Tag Day fundraisers to benefit local charities and causes during which students can purchase a “tag”  dress out of uniform for the day. Tag day passes for the year will be sold during the first weeks of school for $50.00.  Students may purchase a tag the week of the dress down for $2.00.  Students must purchase a tag in advance in order to dress down on the day.  On these days a certain level of decorum, neatness, and modesty is necessary.  It is with these ideals in mind that students may wear attire that meets these standards.
