Rochester Academy Charter School has a dress code policy to help create a safe and orderly environment, instill pride in our school community, and eliminate the competition and distractions caused by varied dress styles. You will be expected to arrive in dress code every day. Please cooperate, display modesty and neatness, and take pride in a clean, neat and attractive uniform. School Uniform can be bought from school.

Knee-length, with no designs or logos. Approved color: Khaki/ tan and black.

ATHLETIC WEAR

T-shirt, sweat pants or shorts at knee length. PLEASE NOTE: Athletic wear is only approved for PE and need not be of a specific color.

OTHER

• Jewelry and accessories should be appropriate for school and not attract undue attention. RACS reserves the right to assess the jewelry’s appropriateness.
• Hats, caps, scarves and other headgear may not be worn in the building, with the exception of religious headgear.
• Flip-flops, slippers, heels over 1” or open-toed shoes are not allowed.
