Dress Code / Uniform Policy:
As part of the Restart School Application Process Cooper Academy implemented a dress code policy to promote school pride and limit distractions. All Cooper Academy students will adhere to the following dress code:
Royal Blue (shirt/top/dress)
Khaki, Black, or Gray bottoms (shorts, pants, leggings, skirt)
There is assistance in place to help all students to experience school pride with dress code. Occasionally, there will be school wide school spirit weeks with special dress-up days. On these days, students are allowed to wear clothing that fits the theme.
If students attend school in clothing not meeting the dress code requirements, parents will be contacted to bring clothing to the school to change. Thank you for supporting our school initiatives.
