Dear Parents,
This past year we surveyed parents, students and staff and made several changes to our dress code to make it easier for parents and students to navigate. We have also made it a procedure to provide students with a warning so that they have an opportunity to make adjustments. In order to continue to help, I've highlighted our expectations, and also wanted to highlight several of the areas that we are giving warnings on the most.

Tops: Students may wear ECA crested polos, ECA t-shirts, ECA long sleeves and ECA sweatshirts
