GDCS Uniform Policy
Note to parents: In past years, we have been very understanding and sometimes lax in enforcing our uniform policy. Please note that for the 2023-2024 school year we will be strictly enforcing our uniform policy.
Specifically, this means if a student comes to school out of uniform (shirt without logo, proper shoes, and pants without belt), the parent will be notified and that parent must bring a proper uniform to the school.
We encourage you to read the uniform policy below and to take the necessary steps to secure your child’s uniform well before August.
All uniforms may be purchased and ordered from:
Jay’s Uniform, 922 Bergen Ave, Jersey City; 201-721-5319
The earlier you get your child’s uniform, the better.
