Dress Code

Students are required to wear the ACA school uniform daily, starting with the first day of school. Students’ uniforms should be clean, neat, and worn in the correct size. ACA uniforms should be well kept, with 

no holes, marks, or tears.

PE does not require an additional uniform. Please purchase bottoms that are comfortable and allow for movement. No athletic shorts, sweats, or jeans please.

ACA Uniform Policy:

Approved uniform bottoms: Students may wear weather appropriate shorts, pants, skirts, or jumper dresses, in the following colors: navy, black, or khaki. Jeans are not considered part of the approved ACA dress code.

K-1 students can wear a more comfortable, less fitted style of bottoms, as they are still learning to use the buttons and zippers on more structured pants and shorts. Examples of this include leggings or relaxed pants. No sweatpants, please.

Approved uniform tops: All students will wear the ACA logo polo to school daily. The ACA polo will be offered in navy blue, white, and grey.

ACA knows that children learn and grow in different ways, and we want to reflect that in our uniform policy. Polos may be worn tucked, or untucked, to provide comfort to the student. Belts are optional as well, if pants and shorts are well fitting, comfortable, and a good representation of the ACA community.

Cold Weather:

Sweaters and long sleeves worn under the ACA polo should be navy, white, or gray, to keep a consistent and identifiable look to the student body.

There is no restriction on coats to be worn outdoors. Please always send your child to school in weather appropriate clothing, as we go outside daily, weather permitting. Gloves, scarves, and hats for colder weather will be kept in backpacks or lockers/cubbies.

Boots may be worn in colder months, as necessary.

Hats:

Hats and head coverings are to be worn outdoors only, unless worn for a religious purpose. 

Shoes:

Children at ACA are active learners and need shoes that support activity! 

ACA students should wear athletic shoes that encourage movement, provide adequate tread for playground equipment, and allow for comfort and functionality for PE, outside learning, and choice time activities.

ACA students should wear closed toe shoes, no sandals, crocs, or flip flops.

As stated in the cold weather section of our policy, winter boots may be worn in the colder months, as deemed necessary by school administration.

Our uniform policy is designed to help families and students. We always encourage you to reach out with questions and suggestions.

Thank you for being part of the Achievement Charter Academy family!

The school administration reserves the right to the final approval of dress code attire.
