In the 2023-2024 school year, the APS Board of Education updated the district’s dress code policy. Starting with the 2025-2026 school year, any school wishing to maintain or explore implementing an optional school uniform must first go through an engagement process. This process requires a vote by the school’s GO Team and, for middle and high schools, a vote by either the Student Government Association (SGA) or, if no SGA exists, the entire student body.
