[quote=Anonymous]From the St. Alban's handbook. Don't see any mention of "tradition" as the reason for students having to wear khakis and blazers. In fact, I believe I see the word "conduct" right there in the first sentence. The policy and reasoning below ate pretty much the same as Hardy's policy which can be found at hardyms.org

So to re-cap: uniforms/dress code at St Alban's and at Hardy are pretty the same AND they're done for the same reason.

Dress Guidelines
To promote a standard of dress consistent with the School’s goals for conduct and academic excellence, St. Albans requires students to follow the guidelines listed below. The School also asks parents to monitor their son’s dress
and grooming before he leaves home each morning. The School believes that rules alone cannot guarantee good appearance and therefore expects the spirit, as well as the specific guidelines below, to govern each boy’s manner of dress. All St. Albans students have the responsibility to dress in a manner appropriate for and respectful of the learning environment of the School.
• Boys must be well groomed; beards and mustaches are not allowed.
• Boys’ clothing must be neat, clean, in good repair, and appropriately sized.
• All equipment and articles of clothing should be marked with the boy’s name.
• All boys must wear socks and dress or laced shoes properly tied (athletic shoes are acceptable); solid long dress or khaki slacks or solid dress shorts; a belt; and either a collared dress shirt and a necktie, or a high-collared turtleneck. Shirts and turtlenecks must be tucked in at all times.
• Upper School boys must wear a suit coat, sport jacket, or blazer.
• Lower School boys must wear a suit coat, sport jacket, or blazer, or a long-sleeved, non-hooded sweater. When in Upper School areas, Lower School boys must wear a sport coat or sweater.
• Boys may not wear hats or outdoor jackets inside the School. Examples of other unacceptable clothing are sandals or heavy boots; denim jeans of any color; coveralls, athletic gear, cargo pants, or military-type trousers; mock turtlenecks; crew-neck, polo, rugby, denim, or flannel shirts; tee-shirts; and sweatshirts or athletic shirts.
In all matters of dress and appearance, the deans of stu- dents of the Upper and Lower schools have the author- ity to interpret and enforce these guidelines. On some occasions, the School may relax the dress guidelines for a day. For certain school functions, the School will require boys to wear a jacket, necktie, dress shirt, and polished dress shoe[/quote]
