Advanced Learning Academy Uniform Guidelines
School Philosophy on Uniforms
The design commitments of the Advanced Learning Academy have an emphasis on authenticity, individuality, as well as personal and social awareness. To that end, we want to develop students’ capacity to make wise choices. While we adhere to the SAISD Dress Code Guidelines, we also want to create a space where students have choice and self-expression. Our school’s focus is on learning and part of the learning process is the need to understand social/cultural norms and frameworks for presenting oneself in a successful way depending on the context. We have identified trends and needs for further clarifying our approach to student attire. This is an ever-evolving topic and we aim to provide parameters while also being open to continue dialogue.
