Most of our uniform items must be purchased through our three approved vendors. We highly recom-mend using only our vendors for all uniform items. If you choose to shop from one of the following stores we only recommend purchasing pants and/or polo shirts. If you choose to purchase pants or shirts out-side of our vendors please make sure these items comply with our dress code. Suggested Stores for pants and polo shirts: Old Navy, Target, Kohl’s, Sears, Children’s Place and JC Penney’s

Creative Logo Solutions frequently sells PE uniforms in our lobby before school or after school. Dates and times will be posted on our website.

NCA has found vendors that have quality products for good prices. Thus, price adjustments and increases are not made by NCA.

NCA has the right to amend the uniform code at any time with or without notice. NCA has the right to de-termine whether or not a clothing item(s) meets our code or the mission of our school.

We strongly recommend that you label your children’s clothing. Unlabeled items are taken to a local charity at the end of every month. Creative Logo Solutions offers monogramming for NCA sweatshirts which is recommended. Dennis Uniforms sells labels that are ideal for labeling all your children’s outer clothing items, backpacks, water bottles and lunch boxes. You may also use a sharpie to write clearly on the inside of all clothing items.

Every student is given a two week grace period at the beginning of each school year. There are no consequences if a child is out of dress code for the first two weeks of school. Please refer to the Family Handbook or your child’s homeroom handbook for consequences for being out of dress code after the grace period is over.

If you have questions about the dress code or guidelines, you may contact your division coordinator
