We Need Your Help with Uniform Expectations
Parents, we truly need your partnership in helping students follow our uniform policy. Our school colors are black, red, white, and khaki only. Please note that gray shoes are not permitted, and all clothing worn inside the building—including coats and sweatshirts—must have the school logo embroidered.
A few key reminders:
Spirit Days have not yet begun. We will notify families when non-uniform days are approved.
Collared shirts are required at all times, even under sweatshirts.
Hoodies are not allowed at any time.
Skirt length is a major concern—many are not providing adequate coverage. Please ensure skirts meet modesty expectations.
Your support at home makes a significant difference in keeping our learning environment focused, respectful, and unified. Thank you for helping us uphold these standards.
2. Academic Corner
Living the Three E’s at Our School
This year, our teachers and students are focusing on the Three E’s: Excellence, Engagement, and Excitement. These guide everything we do in and out of the classroom.
Excellence: We set high standards for academics, character, and school culture.
Engagement: Learning is driven by curiosity, essential questions, and purposeful connections across subjects.
Excitement: A love of learning is contagious—our goal is to inspire joy and passion in every classroom.
Together, the Three E’s help us ensure that every student is challenged, supported, and inspired to Dare to Soar.
