School Attire
At Olympic Range Carden Academy/ORCA we believe school is a child’s business.
Children are therefore required to wear clothing appropriate to school and business.
Experience has shown that students tend to behave in accordance with their dress.
The goals of the dress code are:
- To foster a respectful, business-like attitude that encourages learning.
- To eliminate distractions caused by clothing.
- To ensure modesty.
ORCA has selected Lands’ End and French Toast
to be the suppliers of the uniform dress code. ORCA logo is available for embroidery
on selected items through Lands’ End. (The preferred school number for
ORCA is 9000-4143-5.) Lands’ End for School catalogs, French Toast Official
School Wear catalogs and current uniform guidelines are available in the office.
