Dress Code Policy

Dressing for Success in the Classroom

We have recently updated our OPA Dress Code Policy for the 2022-2023 school year. Our OPA Dress Code Committee met several times this year to update the Dress Code Policy and select the best vendors to supply OPA families. The new OPA Wear will have our updated logo, although we will allow students to wear clothing with the old logo.  However, we are not allowing students to wear Khaki starting in August 2022, student bottoms should be plaid or black. Now that students are back in school full time, we do expect all students to follow the dress code policy everyday, and professors and administration will be strictly enforcing the dress code for the 2022-2023 school year.

OPA Wear can be purchased from the store of your choosing. For your convenience, we have provided links to several retailers below.
