Previous outerwear purchased from the Tommy Hilfiger store with the school shield will be grandfathered in as acceptable, although it will not be for sale moving forward.*Please note that men are required to have one pair of pants as part of their uniform.

By having money in each child’s account prior to entering the dining room, we find that the lunch lines move along much faster, which gives your child more time to eat and be with friends.
