Uniform Dress Code Policy
Attention Blue Oak families! A generous donor has provided funding to help buy uniforms for students with financial need. Contact Mrs. Stinson if you would like assistance.
At The Academies, we support a school uniform policy in order to level the playing field for all of our
students. Our school uniform policy helps to provide an academic environment where children feel equal,
and are not distracted or offended by what others wear. It is the parent or guardian's responsibility to be
sure that the student is wearing the official school uniform. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.

Spirit Day Every Friday!
Students may wear any school shirt to show their pride in The Academies (SVA or BOA). Examples include I love
SVA, I love Blue Oak, Jog-a-Thon, Mathletics, SVA Basketball, or shirts that have been decorated at home to show school
spirit. Students are not required to wear a spirit shirt on Fridays; if they choose not to do so, the regular
uniform is required.
Spirit gear is on sale in your school's office. Tees are $10 and hoodies are $20.
