Dress Code
Children are engaged in various activities during the day; some of these activities can be messy, and/or athletic in nature. Additionally, children are engaged in outdoor play daily, weather permitting. Due to these activities, children should be dressed in seasonably appropriate, comfortable clothing.
Parents are requested not to dress children who are toilet training in overalls, onesies, or clothing with difficult closures.
Coats, hats, gloves, snow pants, scarves, and winter boots must be provided in the winter months. It is not necessary for the children to wear their winter boots to school. Teachers will change the children into their winter boots when they go outdoors.
Children are not permitted to wear open-toed, and/or open-backed shoes. No sandals, please. The most appropriate type of shoes for participation in school activities are rubber-soled, sneakers/tennis shoes.
All clothing items must be clearly labeled with the child’s first and last name. This includes coats, hats, gloves, scarves, and boots. BrightPath cannot be responsible for lost or damaged items of clothing.
Children are discouraged from wearing jewelry of any kind. It is a safety hazard for your child as well as the other children enrolled in the program. In addition, BrightPath cannot be responsible for lost or stolen valuables.
Hair beads, barrettes, bobby pins, etc. are also discouraged. These accessories are considered to be safety hazards…i.e. choking. When choosing accessories for your children be mindful of the potential safety issues they present not only for your child but also for other children attending BrightPath.
