Uniforms

Atlanta Classical Academy requires students to wear uniforms to eliminate distractions, to level the playing field, and to remind ourselves that we are doing important work. Students are required to dress according to the appropriate uniform boards below and also to adhere to the dress-related regulations. The uniforms team worked to ensure that uniforms are comfortable, attractive, durable, and affordable.

Purchasing Notes

  • Uniform Boards: When ordering, we highly recommend that parents have uniform boards in hand for reference.

  • Sizing: Please keep in mind that children grow quickly! Consider sizing up as needed.

  • Skirt Options for Grades 5–12: Navy gabardine and high school plaid skirts are available with a +4-inch length option. If you’ve had to size up for additional length but found the waist too large, the +4 option allows for a better fit in both waist and length.

  • Gray Comfort Color Quarter Zips: It is recommended to size up from a student's normal hoodie size.

If a student's uniform is deemed inappropriate or in poor condition, parents will be contacted, and a change of clothing may be required for the student to remain at school.
