Patriot Days & Free Dress Days

Every Friday is Patriot Day. On Patriot Day students may wear Wasatch Peak Academy t-shirts or Wasatch Peak Academy logo shirts and dress code bottoms. On free dress days, students are expected to dress in a manner that positively impacts the learning environment. Clothing must not compromise safety standards for our students. The following are not permitted: hats, costumes (unless specifically identified), baggy or saggy pants, tank tops, shorts or skirts higher than mid-thigh, bare feet, open toe or high-heeled (over 1/2 inch) shoes, and clothing that displays obscene, drug related, vulgar, or sexually explicit words, messages, or pictures, or clothing reasonably assumed as gang-related. Clothing must not expose midriffs, buttocks, or undergarments.

As styles change, or if questions arise, the Principal, as the Governing Boards’ designee, has the authority to determine whether or not a student’s dress is in keeping with this policy. Students may not opt-out of this policy, but the Principal may at any time during the school year grant an exemption from this policy  to a student because of extenuating circumstances. Parents who have a complaint or concern with respect to this policy, including regarding a denial of a requested exemption from this policy, should follow the school’s Grievance Policy for Parents.

What if My Child is Not in Uniform?

If a student comes to school in clothing that is not within our dress code policy, they will be directed to the front office. The student will then call home for appropriate attire and the parents will need to bring them uniform clothing to change into. The front office will not provide alternate clothing if a student is out of dress code.

Where Can I Find Uniform Clothing?

Option 1: School uniforms can be purchased at several stores. Many parents have found success at Walmart, Target, Children’s Place, and Old Navy.

Option 2: Our PTO sells used uniforms at the school for $1.00 per item of clothing.

What if I'm Not Sure if My Child's Clothing is Dress Code Approved?

Call us at the front office or email Julie Nelson at the front office at jnelson@wasatchpeak.org.
