1
Get a printed copy of your child's school dress code. This will give you exact specifications as to what is and is not allowed. If there are any ambiguities or you are not sure about certain requirements, call the school and speak to administrators who can further explain the specifications of the dress code. This will eliminate any confusion that you may have and will ensure that you purchase an appropriate uniform online.

There is usually very little flexibility in the colors and styles of clothing required, so be sure that you know exactly what your child will need. Most schools seem to be choosing polo style shirts or simple button-downs. Cardigan sweaters are typically allowed, as long as they match the uniform. Bottoms are typically required to be plain blue or black, and not denim.

Stock up. Be sure that you purchase at least one full week's worth of uniforms for each child. Life is far too busy to have to wash them several times a week!
