ICA Uniform & Dress Code

Back to school means it is time to break out that Summer Uniform! Please make sure that your Knight is in the proper uniform and meets our full Dress Code. The Dress Code can be found in our Student Handbook.

Here is a refresher -

Daily Uniform - Expectations 

● Shoe laces must be tied. 

● Shirt tails must be tucked in. 

● Pants must be worn at the waist and not the hips.

● Skirts, skorts, or gym shorts are not allowed to be rolled at the waist and are to be of reasonable length. 

● Dyed hair and outlandish styles are not permitted. 

● Boy's hair must be cut so as not to extend below the top of the shirt collar or the top of the eyebrows. 

● Make-up may not be worn. (Only clear or pale or light pink or white nail polish is permitted.) School Administration and faculty will request the removal of any inappropriate make-up. 

 ● Jewelry may consist of the girls' post-earrings (1 in each ear). Boys are not permitted to wear earrings. A religious medal, cross on a small chain, and single small bracelet may be worn by both boys and girls. No other jewelry may be worn during school hours. 

● Habitual violation of the dress code will be considered defiance, and a behavior report will be given. 

● Should it be necessary for the student to be out of uniform, a note from the parent needs to be given to the homeroom teacher before the start of the day. 

● Only ICA spirit wear or plain navy or maroon sweatshirts are permitted to be worn in class for extra warmth.

**Please note that a sweatshirt may be worn in ADDITION to the full seasonal uniform. A sweatshirt does not replace a logoed polo shirt for summer uniforms or any piece of formal winter uniform for boys or girls. 

● No hats or caps may be worn in the building. (Unless we have a specific hat themed dress down day.)

Our yearbook is not just a collection of pictures. It's a treasure trove of experiences, friendships, and milestones your child has achieved over the year. It captures the spirit of their school life, from classroom activities and sports achievements to special events and candid moments with friends.

However, please be aware that prices will increase on September 1st and rise even higher on September 17th. 

This is a golden opportunity to secure this priceless memory book at an unbeatable price, especially for families with multiple children.

ICA is happy to announce that we are able to offer monthly lunch menus once again. The menu for the new month will be included in one of the Weekly updates per month. The menus have a permanent page on our website. You can find it under both the Parents menu tab at the top of our Home Page and the Students tab.

And remember all of The Weekly Updates are archived on our Website as well. They can be found under the Parents tab.

The price of lunch has increased for the 2023-2024 school year to $4.50. Our A La Carte daily offerings are now pizza and yogurt lunch.

If your Knight has a ticket purchased at the previous lunch price it will be honored.
