The Dallas ISD Board of Trustees has approved the district’s dress code policy that requires student uniforms for all elementary and middle school students.

A parent or guardian may request in writing an exemption to the mandatory student uniform policy based on religious or philosophical reasons. Parents and guardians should speak with the school principal about objections to the district's board-approved, standard uniform policy.

The required colors for elementary and middle school student uniforms are solid khaki, navy blue, or black for the bottom and white for the top. Schools may choose to add one solid color shirt other than white. The approved clothing items include shirts and blouses, turtleneck and polo-style shirts, slacks and pants, skirts and jumpers, shorts and capri pants, and jackets, cardigans, and sweaters.

Shirts, blouses, turtleneck, or polo-style shirts must have collars. Skirts, jumpers, shorts, and capri pants must be at least knee length. The colors of jackets, cardigans, and sweaters must match the approved uniform colors and one additional solid color top to be determined by the campus

Students must wear athletic shoes, loafers, dress shoes, or other closed-toe, closed-heel shoes. Closed-toe and open-heel mules are allowed.
