The K-5 Adult Polos are much more expensive for the Foundation to purchase than the K-5 Youth Polos.

NMIS has a dress code that all students must comply with beginning the first day of school. The Foundation recommends that parents order uniforms over to ensure their student(s) is ready for the first day of school. Post-summer orders can take a month or more to fulfill and the items are no longer discounted. The Foundation may have additional ordering opportunites but does not gurantee any particular time. Families are always encouraged to order sufficient uniform clothing before school begins.

Unfortunately no, all sales are final. Due to the unique nature of NMIS uniforms, we cannot return items to our supplier to be used elsewhere. The Foundation is staffed by volunteers who donate a significant amount of time to organize the uniform sale and handle the accounting. We do not have the ability or capacity to process returns.

The Foundation is staffed by volunteers and we do not have the capacity to handle returns.

In some situations we may be able to help but cannot make any promises, please contact the Foundation at info@nmisf.org.

No, there will not be a long sleeve polo option available for sale this year. The long sleeve polos were retired from uniform sales in 2019. If you have used ones, they can still be worn but we will not be selling them anymore. Per the School's Uniform Policy, students can wear solid colored long sleeve shirts underneath their polos and still be in uniform.​

No, but examples of where to purchase these items are listed in the Family Handbook, Appendix G. Please note that specific dark blue and khaki pants are required, not just any bottom in the correct color.

After the Back-to-School Sale, uniform polos and zip-up hoodies may be purchased on a limited basis on the website throughout the year but for the regular price. There will be a very limited inventory of uniform zip-up hoodies. However, it is very important to note that we cannot guarantee that you will receive your order before school starts, so please plan accordingly. Purchases can be made through our Shop. The Foundation sells items on a first-come, first-served basis. If the Foundation runs out of inventory, it will take a month or more for us to obtain more. Please plan accordingly or reach out to our fantastic community if you need a shirt and we cannot immediately meet your needs. If the item you need is out of stock, please email us at uniforms@nmisf.org. Families are always encouraged to order sufficient uniform clothing before school begins.

No. It is a copyright violation to put the School logo on your own apparel or to have a uniform vendor create uniform tops for you, as well as a violation of the spirit in which NMIS operates. The Foundation is the exclusive vendor for providing uniform shirts for the School and has contracted with a company to ensure that specific threads and colors are used to embroider the School's logo onto uniforms. Per the Uniform Policy, students wearing incorrect uniforms will be sent to the office and remain there until parents/guardians bring a new uniform top.

Please contact Ms. Carmen, the School’s fantastic Registrar, at registrar@nmis.org to discuss options that the School has for families needing assistance with uniforms. Ms. Carmen will be out for summer break and returns to the school a week or two before school starts. Some information is also available in the Family Handbook, Appendix G.

NMIS has a School Uniform Policy: "The students at NMIS are required to wear a school uniform. The main reasons for having a uniform policy are to eliminate subjectivity in the appropriateness of a child’s clothing, promote school unity, as well as to help mask the socio-economic status of the families of our school. Students demonstrate their commitment to school spirit and community by following the uniform policy." The specific details of this policy can be found in the Family Handbook. If you have questions, please contact the School directly.​

Each student's uniform is composed of - a polo with the NMIS logo - uniform bottoms - a zip-up hoodie or fleece jacket with the NMIS logo (optional but required outerwear for indoors) Students are required to be in uniform at all times except recess, when any outerwear can be worn. The long sleeve polo was retired from uniform sales in 2019 (i.e., it is no longer available for purchase) but it can still be worn per the dress code. Any other item is not permissible even if it has the NMIS logo on it, including sweaters.​

Per the School's Uniform Policy, students cannot “cover up” their uniform shirt with something that is not “uniform” while indoors. The Foundation sells zip-up hoodies and fleece jackets for students wanting to bring something warmer to wear during class. Parents are highly encouraged to purchase outerwear!

Spirit shirts are special annual t-shirts available from the Foundation. These special shirts may be worn in place of the regular uniform top of Fridays. This shirt changes every year and, per the Uniform Policy, only the one for the current year may be worn. Please do not send your child to school in an old spirit shirt.

No. Per the Uniform Policy, students are not allowed to personalize their uniform polos. Students are encouraged to have their name written inside of their clothing in case it becomes lost, but embroidered or printed personalization on the outside of uniform polos is prohibited.

In previous years the Foundation collected donations of old uniform shirts, hoodies, and bottoms and sold them at a reduced price. However, because the sale was first-come, first-served, we found that many families who needed this low-cost alternative were not able to purchase items because they sold out too quickly. So, the Foundation has instead decided to allow the School to distribute these donated items directly to families needing assistance. These items will be available year round. The Foundation does not assist with used uniforms anymore. Ms. Eliza, the School’s wonderful receptionist, will handle donations and Ms. Carmen, the School’s fantastic Registrar, will handle distributions. Please contact registrar@nmis.org for information.​ School staff are on summer break and will return at the end of July.
