School Rules and Expectations

School uniforms create an environment conducive to learning. Students at the Abby Kelley Foster Charter Public School are required to wear uniforms. This policy is designed to allow students to focus their attention on academics.

To ensure that the school’s uniform policy has the desired effect, it is important that it be implemented consistently. School leaders, faculty and staff will do their best to respond immediately to violations of the policy. First-time offenders will be required to change into a uniform from the spare uniform bank, if possible, and the parent will be contacted. The second time a student arrives at school out of uniform; the parents will be called to bring the student a uniform.

Families are expected to support the school when an out-of-uniform issue is determined. The family will be expected to bring the child what is needed, or the child will not be allowed to return to class.

The Principal/assistant principal  reserves the right to make minor changes to the uniform guidelines to enforce the spirit of the dress code. The color and style of the uniforms will not be altered; however, provisions for jewelry and hair are subject to change.

Student’s appearance must never distract from or disrupt the regular education process. All attire should be kept neat, clean and in good condition at all times. Personal hygiene must meet the highest standard.
