Dress Code

King Center Charter School is a uniform school. Students who are in uniform daily tend to be more focused on learning and achievement. KCCS strictly enforces its uniform policy. Students who come to school out of uniform will not be permitted to go to class until they are brought proper uniform attire. If you are unable to follow the uniform policy, please contact the Leadership Team to arrange an appointment. We will make every effort to assist you in obtaining proper uniforms.
