Barnes & Noble Summer Reading
Earn a free book through the Barnes & Noble Summer Reading Program for scholars in grades 1st-6th. Barnes & Noble encourages students to read at least eight books over the summer, whether they be purchased at local retail stores, borrowed from libraries or borrowed from friends or family. This will prevent summer reading loss and help our students maintain or increase their literacy over the summer.
Scholastic Summer Reading
From May 9th through September 12th, kids can visit the summer zone in Scholastic Home Base, a completely free digital destination which offers stories, characters, games, and a community of readers. Home Base is moderated for safety 24/7.
UNIFORM POLICY 2024-2025 School Year
The dress and grooming of DCP-Redford students shall contribute to the health and safety of each individual, promote a positive educational environment, and not disrupt the educational activities and/or processes of the school. These minimum standards of dress and grooming apply to all students. The uniform policy will be strictly enforced. Scholars are expected to come to school everyday dressed in accordance with the uniform policy.
The first time a student arrives to school out of uniform, the school will provide the appropriate uniform to that student for the day and the borrowed uniform must be returned back to the school the following day. Repeated infractions will require a parent to bring the student a complete uniform before the student is permitted to class.
There are days that the uniform policy is relaxed; when those days arise, you will be notified in writing. The school reserves the right to change the dress code as needed; parents will be notified.
The following items are permitted:
- Polo style uniform shirts of any color.
- Uniform pants of any color.
- Uniform dresses/skirts/skorts may be no shorter than two inches above the knee.
- Uniform sweaters, vest and blazers are permitted
- Closed toe shoes only.
The following items have potential to cause disruption or threat to a safe and positive school environment and are prohibited while on campus:
• Hats, caps, visors, sunglasses or bandanas cannot be worn indoors.
• Chains hanging from the neck, belt, pocket or attached to wallet.
• Jewelry that contains any type of sharp object.
• Short hemlines on shorts and/or skorts (less than mid-thigh).
- No Blankets
- No Hoodies
- No open toes/heel shoes/crocs/slides/flip flops
- No mid-drift tops
- No biker shorts or leggings
Students not in compliance with the uniform policy will be referred to administration for parent contact and/or application of consequences. Repeated infractions will result in suspension.
