UNIFORMS
We know you will want to be ready for the first day of school on Thursday, August 8. Students must be in uniform on that day. We have several options for you to purchase uniforms: online, in our on-campus store, and during uniform swaps.
Our Online Uniform Store will be back online on July 1. (Orders placed this summer will be available for pick up at Meet the Teacher.)
Our On-Campus Store will be open on the following dates in July:
Monday, July 22: 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Tuesday, July 23, 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Wednesday, July 24, 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Monday, July 29, 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Tuesday, July 30, 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Wednesday, July 31, 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
HPA’s PTO will also host what’s called a Uniform Swap before the start of school. It’s an opportunity for parents to donate gently used uniform items to earn tickets toward the purchase of other gently used items - or new items in the On-Campus Store. There, you will also be able to purchase discounted items that have been outgrown and donated by classmates. We will have those dates for you in the next few weeks.
