Other Expectations
Shoes must be conservative, safe, appropriate for the activity, and not distracting. Leather-top dress shoes are acceptable for most daily activities. Sandals, open-toed shoes, dress shoes, pumps with slippery soles, loose laces, and high heels present safety hazards and are not appropriate. Rain boots and winter boots are only acceptable to protect from weather, not as fashion statements. Athletic shoes are acceptable as long as they do not have embellishments such as lights, glitter, wheels, ribbons, etc.
Socks and stockings: girls may wear socks or tights that are dark blue, black, or white. Boys may wear dark blue, black, or white socks. Bright colors and patterns should be avoided.
Hats and headgear worn for style and comfort rather than for religious or medical reasons should be removed inside.
Accessories should be conservative, safe, and not create a distraction.
- Large-looped earrings or dangling jewelry are distracting and a safety concern.
- Leave precious jewelry at home.
- Please do not highlight any piercings in one ear or piercings on other parts of the face or body.
- Other clothing may be worn over uniforms only when required by weather conditions.
Hair and makeup styles should be subtle to the degree of being almost unnoticeable and should require little or no distracting maintenance during the day. Hair must be a color found naturally within the human species.
Ordering Instructions
Middle School Uniform Ordering Instructions
All TASIS students must wear a school uniform. Required uniform garments must be ordered through the TASIS official uniform supplier, Unique Uniforms. We offer many uniform items to allow students some choice in colors and styles.
Please respect the ordering deadline of April 30 to allow Unique Uniforms enough time to fulfill your children's orders before the beginning of the new school year. Placing the order by the deadline doesn’t imply any commitment on your part since orders can be canceled, changed, or fully refunded any time before delivery.
Order and Delivery Terms
- Orders for the upcoming academic year must be submitted by April 30. Families who process their order after this deadline may not receive all requested garments by the beginning of the new school year. Newly enrolled students should submit their orders as soon as possible.
- From April 1, the Unique Uniforms website will only allow customers to place orders for the upcoming school year. If you require something before the new year, contact info@uniqueuniforms.ch and they will ship it within five working days.
- Some items, if ordered late, may be out of stock in September and will be available again in November.
- During the rest of the year, the company’s warehouse will be stocked and will deliver all orders within 5 to 7 working days. In the unlikely event a garment is out of stock, the delivery time might take up to six weeks.
- Orders can be sent to a Swiss address for CHF 10 or can be delivered to TASIS free of charge. We recommend that families living in Switzerland opt for the home delivery option.
- All orders for September with the home delivery option will be shipped the week before the start of the school year. All orders sent to the School will be delivered during Orientation and a timetable will be sent in the summer.
