Dress for Success!

  • Success and leadership start with how we are dressed. At John E. Flynn a Marzano Academy, our uniform policy gives all of our students their best chance at being safe and successful.

    Most professions as adults require a uniform or dress code. Sports teams, policemen, firemen, health professionals, lawyers, even clerks dress to accomplish their jobs. Uniforms identify members as a team or to reflect well on themselves, their employer/firm, and the public. Our Marzano student leaders dress as the leaders they are!

    TOPS:

    Shades of blue, black, gray or white plain, button up shirt (polo or full button). Students may wear plain blue, black, gray or white sweaters or hoodies over shirts. Shirts must be tucked in if they are longer than pants pockets; otherwise, belts and tucking in are not required.
