Important Reminders and Updates
AMHS Outerwear Reminder
Arabia Mountain High School is a uniform school, and all students are expected to arrive each day dressed in the approved AMHS uniform. Maintaining our uniform standards promotes school pride, professionalism, and a positive learning environment.
All uniform shirts and blazers must display the official AMHS logo. Students are permitted to carry clear or mesh bookbags only. Shoes must be closed-toe and closed-heel. Crocs, slides, flip-flops, and other open-toed or open-heeled shoes are not permitted.
Please review the AMHS Uniform Policy for complete uniform requirements. A list of approved uniform vendors is also available on our school website.
Physical Education Uniforms
Students enrolled in Physical Education courses are required to wear the official AMHS P.E. uniform. These uniforms are available for purchase through the AMHS Health & P.E. Department.
Blazer Mondays
Every Monday is Blazer Monday at AMHS! Students are expected to wear their official AMHS blazers as part of our commitment to promoting professionalism and school pride. Our CTAE and Fine Arts departments will also incorporate professional dress expectations into their employability standards, helping students make meaningful connections between their appearance and future career readiness.
Cooler Weather & Approved Outerwear
As temperatures begin to drop, we want to remind families that our uniform expectations remain in effect. Please ensure students are dressed appropriately for the weather while adhering to the following guidelines:
Outerwear: All jackets, sweaters, and other outerwear must be hoodless and solid Navy, Hunter Green, White, or Black.
Uniform Shirts: The official AMHS polo must be worn underneath all outerwear.
Head Coverings: Hats, bonnets, scarves, and other head coverings are not permitted unless worn for religious purposes. Religious head coverings must be solid Navy, Hunter Green, White, or Black.
We appreciate our families' continued support in ensuring that students arrive at school each day in full uniform and ready to learn. Consistency in meeting these expectations helps us maintain a focused, safe, and respectful learning environment for all students.
