American School Uniform

Cost in dollars please!!!!! : )

LA, CA private schools:

My son's private school let's us buy uniforms wherever. I get them at Old Navy on sale - 5 khaki shorts x $10, 5 khaki pants X $10, 5 polo shirts x $5 Total = $125 + tax The girls can add about $50 for a plaid skirt and a skort. I'm glad the uniforms are cheap because the tuition is expensive!

Other schools make you buy uniforms at their vendor. Private girls school, Mills SchoolWear - polo 5 x $16 = 80, skirts 5 x 30 = $150, slacks 2 x $30 = 60, dress blouses 2 x $30 = $60 Total = $350

Some schools require blazers, that would be around $100 for one.

Of course, prices can vary greatly.

In many school districts it is becoming mandatory to have a lockdown kit for each classroom. A Classroom Lockdown Kit is the first step in ...

we have uniforms but the collared shirt can be any color but the pants cant be jeans they have to be pants (brown or navy)
i need to know does abercrombie, hollister, american eagle ect. sell those kinds of clothes year round?

oh im a guy

I used to have to get navy pants.
I got navy cords in the winter at J. Crew & American Eagle.
I've also gotten plain blue pants at AE in the spring/fall.
I'm sure it's the same for guys...
If by brown you mean more of a dark khaki, you can definitely get them. Go to the stores and look around a little bit, or go to a department store. Even if you don't want to spend too much, you can probably find a nice pair on sale.

What are the colors of type? Is it a no uniform school? What kind of school is it ? If any one can tell mer any info on American high in miami please don't hesitate to answer
The school named American Senior high. The patriots

The rules are different in every town. Most don't require uniforms. In my High School we were supposed to ware blue bottoms and white tops, because they are the town colors. My bbf went to Catholic high school and they had regular uniforms.

How can I customize this uniform without getting in trouble?

This is the school uniform list:

SCHOOL UNIFORMS


We believe that the dress code is an important component in promoting and teaching many characteristics that we feel are essential such as responsibility, accountability, attention to detail, and the importance of a neat and well-groomed appearance. There are guidelines that govern dress and grooming to ensure a relatively consistent appearance. Our uniform also serves as a reminder that each of our students is a part of something special and unique, something that is greater than they are. Thus there are guidelines that govern dress and grooming to ensure a consistency of appearance. (I hate our principal for this. Ha)

Penalties for Dress Code Violations

Teachers are to send students to the Counselors Office if clothes are in question. Any student not dressed within the policy code will have his or her parents contacted. Repeated violations of dress code policy may result in the following:
1. The parent may bring the student appropriate clothing (the student will remain unexcused out of class until the appropriate attire is brought to the school). *so un-cool*
2. The student may purchase acceptable clothing in the school store if it is available (parents will be billed for the purchase).
3. The student will serve in-school suspension. Continued violations of school dress code policy may result in suspension or expulsion. *WTF?!*



This sucks. I NEED REAL CLOTHES! In addition, I thought this school supported freedom to Americans and non conformity? I guess not…

I agree Abby <3, that isn't right! Emo kids are mad because they don't have their earrings where they want, and can't wear nail polish.

But I think our school just trys to make us look representable, because we get vistors...alot. Haha.

GEEZ!! It's like they are trying to make you be what they want you to be. That isn't right!

Anyways, try wearing cute nail polish, cute earrings, and shoes. And maybe a necklace and rings. And a scarf, if they allow that.
