Andrean High School Uniform Policy

We believe the uniform policy to be an important aspect of the Andrean mission and ask our students to adhere to these policies. We will treat uniform infractions with disciplinary consequences as outlined in the Student Handbook. Students may be placed on probationary status limiting them from their activities for excessive uniform infractions. All families need to purchase uniforms from Dennis Uniforms located in Highland, IN, or from the Dennis website at www.dennisuniform.com. The uniform has not changed; however, there have been modifications to the uniform policy. All uniforms and shoes must be neat in appearance without visible tears or holes.
