Uniforms
Madrona appreciates any new or gently used uniform donations.
The students of Madrona are required to adhere to the specific dress code that was adopted in 1996. Madrona Elementary Uniform standards are intentionally conservative to help students focus on learning. Only the articles listed below can be worn for the Madrona uniform. Clothing may not be tight, oversized or revealing. Clothing must be neat in appearance and worn appropriately. All staff is responsible for monitoring uniform compliance. Hats, scarves and gloves are worn outdoors only, not in the classroom or building. Coats are not allowed to be worn in the building during school hours. Bandanas are not allowed.
