During the Arco iris start-up process, the Board voted in favor of a mandatory school dress code. The founders wanted the best for their children; high academic standards, global citizenship and a safe, learning environment for every student. Research has shown that schools requiring school uniforms increase safety by identifying trespassers, reduce social, and economic status by promoting equality, and improve academic performance by increasing students’ attention toward their studies.

 

Arco Iris respects and honors all religious beliefs. If your religion dictates a certain type of dress please contact our school administration. We will gladly accommodate your student.

Students attending Arco Iris are required to wear the appropriate dress code except when notified of school sponsored non-uniform days.
