The Virtus Academy uniform symbolizes our commitment to excellence in everything we do as individual members of the Power Pack.
The school uniform is a royal blue, white, navy, or gray polo-style shirt with or without the school crest embroidered on the left side of the chest. Pants, skirts, skorts, and shorts should be khaki, black, navy, or blue jeans. Shoes should be closed-toed and appropriate for physical education and outdoor play. Jackets or sweaters worn inside the building should be black, gray, navy, or white, with or without the school crest.
Please ensure your students arrive daily in full uniform.
Shirts
Uniform shirts should be short or long-sleeved, polo-style in royal blue, white, navy, or gray, with or without the school crest embroidered on the left side of the chest.
Pants, Skirts, Skorts & Shorts
Uniform bottoms include pants, shorts, skirts, or skorts in khaki, black, or navy. Jeans are allowed on Fridays. Pants should be worn at the natural waistline, and undergarments are not to be visible.
Pockets on pants/shorts/skirts/skorts must always be visible.
Shorts, skirts and skorts must be long enough so the student does not touch the skin when their hands extend by their side. They should be fingertip length or longer to assure modesty when seated or engaged in school activities.
We celebrate Fridays by wearing jeans and school spirit T-shirts.
Other
Uniform jackets, sweaters, and sweatshirts in black, navy, white, gray, or royal blue, with or without the crest, may be worn over appropriate uniform shirts.
