Plain Dealing High School Dress-Up Days. On Tuesday, December 17, 2024, students are invited to participate in Christmas Shirt and Sweater Day! Everyone is encouraged to wear their favorite festive shirts or sweaters to celebrate the holiday spirit. However, all attire must be school-appropriate and follow these guidelines: uniform bottoms are required, and blue jeans are not allowed. Let’s spread holiday cheer!
On Wednesday, December 18, 2024, we will celebrate Polar Express Day with Pajama Day! To create a magical and enjoyable experience, all students may wear pajamas while adhering to the following guidelines. Allowed attire includes two-piece pajama sets (tops and bottoms), long pajama pants with modest tops, or flannel or holiday-themed pajamas. One-piece pajamas are permitted but must have a school uniform underneath. Closed-toe slippers with hard soles, sneakers, or other school-appropriate footwear are required. Robes are optional, and festive holiday accessories, such as Santa or elf hats, are encouraged.
Certain items are not allowed to ensure appropriateness and safety. Inappropriate pajamas, such as those with offensive language or graphics, sheer or revealing pajamas, spaghetti straps, tank tops, or low-cut tops, as well as lingerie, boxers, or gowns, are prohibited. Footwear like open-toed slippers, flip-flops, or house shoes without proper soles is also not permitted. Costumes, such as superhero outfits or unrelated character attire, are not allowed, nor are excessive accessories like blankets or stuffed animals, or items that may disrupt the learning environment.
All attire must align with the school dress code for modesty and appropriateness, and students should be able to fully participate in school activities while dressed for Pajama Day. Respectful participation is expected from everyone, and the administration will have the final say on the appropriateness of attire. Let’s make Polar Express Day a fun, magical, and memorable celebration for all!
