UNIFORM GUIDELINES Dress Code Uniforms promote the sharing of a common outlook, behaviours and attitudes within the school and eliminate unhealthy competition in dress. They allow students to be recognized for who they are and not for who they appear to be. Parents are expected to support the Fraser Academy Dress Code by ensuring students have all required uniform items in clean and good repair. Students are expected to wear their uniform in school at all times. They are to enter and exit the building in their full uniform. Students should leave their uniform intact until they are at least one block from the school. Mondays are “Formal Dress Days.” Students are required to wear their dress shirt and tie, with long grey pants or tartan kilt/junior skort. Please check the calendar for additional “Formal Dress Days” such as Grandparent Days, picture days, etc. From Tuesday to Friday, students may select their preferred uniform attire. Note: The 2014/2015 Fraser Academy uniform is grandfathered as meeting the uniform regulations until June 2017.
