Please keep in mind the following important information: 

• Students must be dressed in MH3 attire for summer orientation (August 31 – September 4, 2009).
• Students will be permitted to wear sneakers, boots and shoes of their choice.  Sandals, flip flops, Chinese slippers or slippers of any kind will not be permitted.
• Students shall wear Flynn & O’Hara shorts as directed by school administration.
• For the Fall 2009 semester, Flynn & O’Hara shorts will be permitted during summer orientation until September 30, 2009.
• Please remember that students are not to wear T-shirts with their khaki bottoms.  MH3 T-shirts and sweat pants are only to be worn for gym class. 
• At all times clothing must be neat, clean and in good repair.  Head coverings of any type (expect those dictated by religious observance) may not be worn in school.
• Female students are not allowed to wear makeup or have long manicured finger nails.
• Please review dress code guidelines with your child.  

Important Note to Parents:

Students who arrive to school out of dress code will be sent to the office, where they will call home for their parents to bring in their appropriate uniform.  Please support the dress code by checking for infractions each morning before your child leaves home. It would also help to discuss the importance of our school’s dress code with your child.
