List of 1 frequently asked questions.

• Monday Dress:

  Please use the images at the bottom of this page as descriptions for Monday Uniform dress. Monday dress options will be provided by Land's End or Shaheen's from November through March. Boys are required to wear a uniform sport coat on Mondays.

   

  *Monday dress remains the same as Tuesday-Friday dress in Preschool.

  Tuesday THROUGH Friday DRESS:

  The Lexington School's dress code requires slacks, pants, or school appropriate length skirts/shorts, in solid khaki, navy, gray, or black, along with any solid-colored collared, button-down, or turtleneck shirt. Solid-colored fleece with collars, jackets, or sweaters may also be worn. Students are allowed to wear solid colored crew neck sweatshirts with a collared shirt underneath. TLS branded sweatshirts or hoodies are also acceptable, but hoods must be kept down while students are inside. Unless, TLS branded, all clothing items should be devoid of pictures or patterns. Patterned tights are allowed in Preschool only. Leggings must be worn under clothing (they cannot be worn alone as pants). Outerwear need not follow the solid-color rule unless it is worn inside the building.

  Any solid-colored, jewel-necked, or collared dress/jumper are okay on any school day. Belts must be worn if belt loops are visible. Belts are discouraged in Preschool, and shirttails do not need to be tucked in. Straight hemmed shirts such as polos or blouses may be worn outside of the waistband but must be appropriately sized. All button-down shirts or those with long shirttails must be tucked in. The Monday uniform may be worn on any school day if so desired.

   

  Footwear:
  We ask that all students wear any secure fitting, rubber-soled, tennis shoes, dress shoe, or boot daily.

  ACORNS:

  Dress code for Acorns is solid colors Monday-Thursday, and patterns are allowed on Friday. The collared shirt rule does not apply to Acorns.

  Exceptions:

  On the first calendar Friday each month, there will be a “jeans day” for the entire school. Jeans or other regular dress bottoms along with regular dress tops and TLS spirit gear are appropriate. The solid color rule does apply to these “jeans days”. The dates for “jeans days” will be announced in the division heads’ weekly news. There will be days when the school may declare special “jeans days.” These will be communicated in advance. There is also a tradition that The Lexington School calls a “jeans day” if Fayette County has declared a snow day while TLS in session. This will be confirmed on the school website. Regular dress tops or TLS spirit wear are acceptable on any jeans day.
