πŸ‚ Happy Fall Break, Achieve CP Ranger Families! πŸ‚

Dear Ranger Families,

As we head into fall break, thank you for your continued partnership in supporting our scholars. We appreciate your encouragement, communication, and commitment to helping every Ranger succeed!

We hope this break gives your family time to rest, recharge, and enjoy meaningful moments together. We are proud of our scholars’ hard work and look forward to welcoming them back ready to learn.

A few reminders for the break:

  • Encourage your scholar to read each day.
  • Review grades and any missing assignments together.
  • Make time for rest, family activities, and healthy routines.
  • Check campus communications for reminders about returning to school.

When school resumes, please help your scholar return on time, in uniform, and prepared for a strong start. Every day of learning matters!

Have a safe and joyful fall break, Ranger Family! 🍁

Level Up! One Team. One Campus. One Mission.

With appreciation,
Tremayna Thomas
Principal, IDEA Achieve College Prep

Uniform Information πŸ‘• Uniform Information πŸ‘•

Dear IDEA Achieve Families,

We understand that some uniform items are currently on backorder. We want to support students while ensuring that campus dress-code expectations remain consistent.

If your student is waiting for an ordered uniform item, please provide the front office with a receipt, confirmation email, or vendor screenshot showing the order or backorder. You may cover any payment information before submitting the documentation.

Once the order is verified, your student will receive a Temporary Uniform Accommodation Pass. While waiting for the item:

  • Students should wear a plain shirt in the closest available school or grade-level color.

  • All other uniform and dress-code expectations remain in effect unless an additional item is documented as backordered.

  • Students should keep their pass with them and present it to staff when requested.

  • Families should notify the campus when the uniform order arrives.

  • If the item remains unavailable near the pass review date, families must provide an updated vendor status so the accommodation can be extended.


Students with an active pass will not receive a consequence for the approved backordered item. Thank you for partnering with us to ensure every student arrives prepared, confident, and ready to succeed!



Friday uniform expectations are that students come in full uniform, a college t-shirt, their house color (a plain colored shirt or our specific house shirts from previous years), or an IDEA spirit shirt. Jeans can be worn but may not contain holes or rips. Pants should never show midriff or be sagging.


Clear or mesh backpacks are required.
