Reminder: School Uniform Expectations

As we move toward the end of the first semester, we want to take a moment to address an ongoing concern regarding student uniforms.

While families are informed of the uniform policy at the time of enrollment, we have recently seen an increase in students arriving at school wearing items that are not part of the approved TEACH uniform. Maintaining a consistent uniform helps support a focused learning environment and ensures equity for all students.

Items Not Allowed as Part of the School Uniform (Please note that the following items are not permitted):

• Pants in colors other than the approved uniform colors

• Sweatpants

• Leggings or yoga pants

• Hoodies or sweaters of any kind (including all black)

• Crocs

• Slide sandals

• Foam shoes

• Slip-on house shoes

• Sandals

• Hair scarves

• Beanies

• Blankets

• Stuffed animals

Additionally, wearing a TEACH sweatshirt or crewneck without a polo shirt underneath does not meet uniform requirements.

Approved TEACH Student Uniform (The required daily uniform consists of):

• A grade-level TEACH polo shirt

• Black bottoms for students in grades 9–11

• Beige/khaki bottoms for students in grade 12

Any clothing outside of these guidelines is not considered part of the approved school uniform.

Important Reminder

Administration will begin enforcing consequences for excessive uniform violations, which may impact student privileges. We ask for your partnership in ensuring that students arrive to school dressed appropriately each day.

If you have questions about uniform expectations, please contact the school office at 323-872-0707.
