Uniforms

Uniforms for the 2024-25 School Year:

Uniforms are an indispensable feature of Wesley. They help to maintain an elevated standard of personal appearance, promote a dignified school climate, and foster school pride.

All students in grades K-8 will wear GRAY polos. PYP and MYP students will be distinguished by different Wesley logos reflected on each shirt.

Please take time to read over the 2024-25 updated uniform policy

As a reminder, Flynn O'Hara Uniforms will be our primary uniform vendor.  You can order online here or in-store at their Sandy Springs location:

Parents will still have the option to purchase patches separately at the Wesley School Store. Please note, if you purchase polos directly from Flynn O’Hara, the patch will already be adhered to your child’s shirt.

School Store

Wesley PTSA runs an on-site School Store that sells uniform-approved t-shirts, hoodies, and more. Wesley's PTSA will sell uniform-approved items, including the new patches, at the school store. Note: The PTSA will not be able to adhere new patches to uniform items.

Here is how to pre-order items from the school store and when to pick them up throughout the 2024-25 school year.

PTSA Used Uniform Sale

The Wesley PTSA holds Used Uniform Sales throughout the year and at PTSA meetings. All proceeds benefit the PTSA, which supports the Wesley school community.

If you can volunteer or want to donate gently used uniforms, contact ptsa@wesleyacademy.org.

Wesley Uniform Closet

We keep a variety of uniforms at the school in case of accident, illnesses, or for students who are out of uniform. If you have any uniforms to donate, please drop off anytime to the nurse’s office or email the PTSA at ptsa@wesleyacademy.org. Other items we accept are soap, deodorant, dental hygiene, and feminine hygiene products.

Hardship

Determinations of hardship will be made on a case-by-case basis. Families who experience hardship may notify the school in person or in writing. When possible and related to circumstances, the school will make efforts to support the family in need. However, it remains the responsibility of the family to ensure that students are properly dressed each day.

Contact: Ms. Johnson

Uniform Violations

Wesley students must arrive and leave school properly attired. If a student arrives at school out of uniform, parents will be notified by 9:00 a.m. with a request to either pick the child up or to correct the infraction.
