Uniforms
We are pleased to be among the schools implementing a mandatory uniform policy. The issue was raised by a parent at our first School Advisory (SAC) meeting during 2004-2005 school year, which prompted a year-long study. Students, parents, and staff were surveyed and all voted in support of having our students wear uniforms.
