| School Uniforms | Student Leadership Academy is a Uniform school. Each student is to wear an SLA embroidered polo shirt every day. Shirts must fit appropriately; shirts too large or too small are not permitted. If a shirt is worn under the uniform shirt, it can only be solid red, white, navy, or black; no writing or designs on undershirt.
Navy or khaki uniform shorts, skorts, skirts, capris or pants are to be worn every day. Shorts, skirts and skorts must be at least fingertip length. Overly tight or low rider pants or shorts are not allowed. Bottoms that are made of denim/jean material or that are made to look like denim/jean material are NOT ACCEPTABLE! Jeans are only acceptable on casual day, with the exception of ripped or torn jeans, which are not acceptable at any time.
Occasionally, SLA will have a casual day. On casual day, students are allowed to wear their regular clothing, provided they have not accumulated Uniform Violations. The casual day outfits need to be appropriate and modest. Pajamas, low cut tops, spaghetti straps and bare midriffs are strictly prohibited. Shirt straps must be at least the width of two fingers.
Studded belts, slippers, sandals and flip-flops are not allowed to be worn at any time, even on casual days. Only shoes that are closed toe/closed heel are acceptable, even on casual days. Hats may be worn only on casual days.
Only plain, unadorned sweatshirts or jackets in red, white, navy blue or black, or the SLA embroidered sweatshirts are allowed. SLA jackets are available at school to purchase for $35. Jackets or sweatshirts with logos, markings or other detailing are not allowed.
School spirit shirts (ex: Relay for Life, Community of Caring, etc.) are to be worn on Fridays only and accompanied by uniform-appropriate bottoms.
PE shirts are optional. These are available for sale at school for $7.00 each.
Students participating in Civil Air Patrol will be provided information on proper attire at the beginning of the school year. All CAP dress blue uniforms are provided through the CAP program.
Uniform violations will not be tolerated. Parents will be called to bring a uniform for their student if the student is not dressed appropriately. Students receiving two uniform violations will lose their casual day privilege for the month. Subsequent violations will result in in-school or out-of-school suspension. Parents, please be aware that your child will be missing out on their academics while waiting for an appropriate school uniform to arrive.
