School Uniform Policy
Uniforms are a mandatory policy at EJA. We believe that uniforms improve school climate, eliminate competition and bullying associated with attire. As a result of unified apparel, students are able to focus on their academics. Students are expected to have their uniform on daily without excuse.
Uniform Violation
Parents/Guardians of students with uniform infractions will be contacted immediately and informed of the uniform violation. Students may receive consequences, if they are repeated out of uniform. Possibly leading to deduction of 50 points from the daily points system, exclusion from midday activities, as well as, exclusion from school and class trips.
