Q. What is the dress code for Summer Programs?
KINDER READINESS: The Great Hearts Harveston uniform as outlined in the Family Handbook. If a student does not have a Harveston uniform yet, students may wear plain, logo-free, uniform-style shorts in khaki, black or navy and a plain, logo-free, solid color (white or light blue) uniform-style polo shirt.
We also ask that Kinder Readiness scholars bring a backpack.
SUMMER CAMP: Our Summer Camp dress policy is different from our regular academy dress code:
SHIRTS: Students may wear any Great Hearts Summer shirt, academy spirit shirt, academy athletic shirt or any appropriate t-shirt. Graphic t-shirts, shirts with references to pop-culture, and tank tops are not acceptable.
SHORTS: Students may wear plain, logo-free, uniform-style shorts. They may also wear plain, athletic-style shorts. All shorts must reach mid-thigh and cannot be form fitting (no bike shorts or gymnastic apparel). Uniform pants are allowed.
FOOTWEAR: Students may wear closed-toed tennis shoes. Shoes that make noise, shoes that light up, and open-toed shoes are NOT permitted.
Students in violation of the dress code will not be permitted to participate in the program and parents will be called to pick up or drop clothes off.
