Dear CCA Family,

I hope this note finds you and your family having a wonderful summer!

Your Board and I are committed to working hard at finding ways to improve CCA wherever possible, and that is the reason for this correspondence. 

The weak economy is affecting practically all of us in one way or another.  The Board took action at their last meeting on one way it could help relieve CCA families of some of their financial obligations, which is supplementing the present uniform policy with an economical option from walmart.com.  Please take note of the following:

Nothing has changed with the Land’s End and Dennis Uniform items that were on our 2009-2010 Uniform Policy!  You are free to continue purchasing and using those uniforms like you did last year.

-     6 items were selected from walmart.com to be added to our present uniform policy. 

A link for each of those items is listed below.  The items are as follows:

o   George boys pleat-front pants, KHAKI, $12 each or $16 per two-pack.  Link is http://www.walmart.com/ip/George-Boys-Pleat-Front-Pants/11051709

o   George girls boot-cut pants, KHAKI, $12 each or $16 per two-pack.  Link is http://www.walmart.com/ip/George-Girls-Bootcut-Pants/11051175

o   George boys pleat-front shorts, KHAKI, $10 each or $14 per two-pack.  Link is http://www.walmart.com/ip/George-Boys-Pleat-Front-Shorts/11051442

o   George girls flat-front shorts, KHAKI, $10 each or $14 per two-pack.  Link is http://www.walmart.com/ip/George-Girls-Flat-Front-Shorts/11050999

o   George boys (order for girls, also) short-sleeve polo shirt, NAVY, $6 each or $12 per three-pack.  Link is http://www.walmart.com/ip/George-Boys-Short-Sleeve-Polo-Shirt/11051562

o   George boys (order for girls, also) long-sleeve polo shirt, NAVY, $7 each or $18 per three-pack.  Link is http://www.walmart.com/ip/George-Boys-Long-Sleeve-Polo-Shirt/11051605

-     Again, please order the boys polo shirts for boys and girls  if you wish to buy uniform shirts from walmart.com.  There is no CCA uniform equivalent girls polo shirt at walmart.com. 

-     Please note that only KHAKI pants and shorts, and only NAVY shirts, from walmart.com have been added to our uniform policy.  Again, the Board’s goal was to be sensitive to the present economic condition by adding a few walmart.com items to our uniform policy, thereby providing a simple, economical alternative.  walmart.com may not have the size you need for an item.  In that case, please purchase the Land’s End equivalent that is on our uniform policy.  Please remember that this is a supplement to the uniform policy for your convenience, but not everything in every size will always be available.

-     ANY walmart.com uniform item may be returned to the Clinton Wal-Mart store for a refund.  This will save you from having to package and ship items back.

-     If you wish to purchase a multi-pack, you can find two-packs and sometimes three-packs of the exact same item at walmart.com.  The links listed above are only for one-packs.  Please be very diligent in determining that you are ordering the same exact pieces of clothing that are linked to above.

-     Our local Wal-Mart store does not carry these uniforms.  They will have to be purchased from walmart.com.

The Board has asked me to remind parents that our uniform policy is not a dress code.  At CCA our uniform policy is carried out on the honor system.  This is a great opportunity to teach responsibility and character to the children.  Substituting items outside of our uniform policy is not only breaking a school rule, but it is also teaching our children to disrespect authority.  Please respect the school’s uniform policy.

Below are the links to the CCA approved items at Land’s End and Dennis Uniform:

Dennis Uniform link - http://www.dennisuniform.com/School_Sheet_PDFs/I2A.pdf

Also, it is important to note that the Board will revisit the uniform policy again in 2014. 

Thank you for your time!

Serving the Lord and Students,

Mr. Reid
