Uniforms
Dressing in the Waldron Mercy Academy uniform is an important part of the school day.  Teachers are expected to enforce the uniform policy.  If it is necessary for a child to be out of uniform, a note should be sent to the homeroom teacher.  Dates for uniform changes are noted on the calendar. 
Hair should be well-groomed.  Boys' hair should be trimmed so as not to touch their collars.  Baseball or other hats may not be worn in school.  Jewelry should be simple and not distracting.  No body piercings are permitted, except pierced ears.  Earrings should be no larger than 1 1/2 cm and without hoops.  Cosmetics should be sheer or neutral.  Clear nail polish may be worn.  Artificial nails are not permitted.  Extreme hair coloring and tattoos are not permitted.  Students may not wear Tigerwear in place of any uniform items except for gym class.  Sneakers with wheels are prohibited. 
All uniforms should be purchased at Flynn & O'Hara. Gym uniform (sweats) is available through Lands' End.
