Uniforms

At Cornerstone Academy for Social Action (C.A.S.A.), we believe that a clear and consistent dress code fosters a safe, respectful, and focused learning environment. Our uniform policy helps ensure equity, reduce distractions, and promote school pride. All students are expected to follow the uniform guidelines outlined below.

Required Uniform Items:

• Tops - Black uniform polo shirt or t-shirt (with or without school logo)
• Bottoms - Khaki pants or skirts (knee-length or longer)
• Sweatpants - Official C.A.S.A. uniform sweatpants only
• Footwear - Closed-toe shoes or sneakers (must be worn with socks)

The following items are not allowed under any circumstances:

• Crocs or similar slip-on footwear
• Ripped, torn, or distressed clothing
• Non-uniform sweatpants or joggers
• Shorts, mini-skirts, or other inappropriate attire
• Tops with large logos or designs unrelated to C.A.S.A.

Additional Guidelines:

• Uniforms must be worn daily unless otherwise specified for a designated dress-down day or special event.
• Clothing must be clean, appropriately sized, and worn as intended (e.g., no sagging pants).
• Outerwear (jackets, coats, hoodies) may not be worn in class unless it is official C.A.S.A. uniform gear.
• Students who fail to comply with the uniform policy may be subject to disciplinary action and parent contact.

Why Uniforms Matter:

• Equity: Reducing visible economic differences among students.
• Focus: Limiting distractions to help students concentrate on learning.
• Pride: Creating a sense of community and school identity.
