Frequently Asked Questions:

1. Does my Polo have to have the new crest/logo? Yes, this is the EXPECTATION (REQUIREMENT).
2. What if I already bought Polos from the old uniform vendor? As we are not directly affiliated with any outside uniform vendors, we encourage all parents/guardians to inquire directly with the store regarding refunds or exchanges.
3. Can I wear the old crest/logo if I have already purchased the shirts and cannot get a refund? Please do an exchange for a uniform bottom sold at the store & purchase our New & Improved Polo directly from our Village Market. The new crest/logo is the EXPECTATION (REQUIREMENT).
4. It's too hot! Do 7th and 8th graders have to wear a vest? Yes, it is HOT! Here's the SOLUTION- from October 16th to May 31st 7th & 8th Graders are EXPECTED (REQUIRED) to wear a vest with logo/crest. We reserve the right to adjust these dates due to inclement weather.

8. What kind of shoes can I wear at Garvey/Allen? We love this question because we are a sneakerhead Academy!! Achievers may wear any tennis shoes/sneakers of their choice (including any color). Achievers may also wear Black, Yellow/Gold, or White CROCS that has a strap (NO SLIPPERS) and school appropriate Jiblets. Achievers are also allowed to wear Foam Runners that are completely  enclosed.

9. Do I have to wear a belt? Yes, if your pants or shorts fall below your waist. There is NO SAGGING at Garvey/Allen. Belts must be school appropriate with no vulgar wording or image(s).
10. Do we have FREE DRESS DAYS? NO, Garvey/Allen does not have FREE DRESS DAYS. Instead, Achievers have Theme Dress Days for Spirit Week & Achievers are allowed to participate or wear their school uniform. Superintendent Gilmore does reward Achievers with FREE DRESS DAYS throughout the school year if behavior & 100% of Achievers are following the EXPECTED (REQUIRED) Uniform Policy. 
11. What happens if I do not meet the EXPECTATIONS (REQUIREMENTS) of the Garvey/Allen Uniform Policy? Well this should NEVER happen. However, if the uniform is not worn or not worn properly, parents/gaurdians will be called to bring the appropriate uniform to the school & the Achiever will remain in the Main Office. In the event that the parent/gaurdian cannot return the uniform item within 30 minutes, the Achiever will be given a LOANER uniform (usually with the old crest) & expected to wash it and return it the following day. Other disciplinary action will take place- from detention up to a Behavior Contract. 
12. Do Lady Black Hawks (girls) have to wear plaid uniform bottoms? YES, this is the EXPECTATION (REQUIREMENT). Lady Black Hawks have the choice of plaid pants, skirt, shorts, or skorts. These can be bought IN PERSON at Hilda's Uniforms in Compton or ONLINE at Young's Fashions. As an option, Black pleated skirts, shorts, of skorts may be worn. All items MUST be at an appropriate length according to height and fit of each young lady (girls should be able to stand straight, arms by their side, and the skirt, skort, or shorts be NO SHORTER than their middle fingertips). 
13. Where do we purchase the Black uniform pieces from? To make this easier for our families, Amazon, JC Penneys, Walmart or Target are all great affordable choices (Hilda's is also an option). However, ensure that the correct type of material and style is chosen (see complete uniform policy for pictures). NO JEANS, JEGGINGS, BIKER SHORTS, or STRETCH PANTS are allowed. Khakis or Dickies are the EXPECTED (REQUIRED) type of uniform to be worn. NO EXCEPTIONS!
