Uniform Policies
Opportunity Charter School is a uniform school. OCS believes there are numerous benefits to wearing uniforms, such as improved behavior, increased security, and focusing on academics rather than apparel. Students should wear their uniforms with pride to represent OCS and respect its ability to prepare them to be productive citizens.
Students who abuse the uniform policy will be held accountable, and parents/guardians may be required to come to the school to bring in appropriate attire and/or attend a meeting. We do not allow hats, beads, gang flags, du-rags, low-hanging pants, see-through clothing, exposed undergarments, sweatshirts, sweatpants, jeans, or non-OCS colored sweaters or non-OCS shirts. Additionally, students may not be allowed to participate in any school-related enrichment activities if they are not in uniform during the school day. For more information, please see the section: Student Discipline.
