The Marietta School Board passed the school councils request to implement a uniform dress code at West Side Elementary and MSGA last night. West Side’s uniform dress code consists of a polo-style shirt in navy or yellow with West Side Elementary and the school’s mascot on the left side. Students can also choose to wear their West Side T-shirts. Bottoms would include khaki pants, shorts, or skirts. Fridays will be designated as “Spirit Day”. MSGA unified dress code consists of a polo-style shirt in navy or light blue with white MSGA logo embroidery. Students can also wear their MSGA T-shirt. Choice of bottoms include khakis or jeans. All must be belted/affixed at the waist with shirt tucked in. Both schools have secured funding from outside sources.

The board will work to complete a uniform policy this Summer. Any school can then adopt a uniform policy for their school. The board will hold two public forums to comment on different uniform proposals and offer public input to the board.
