What are the basic guidelines for uniforms for Windham Academy?

Every student wears a top purchased from an approved vendor with the Windham Academy logo. There

are many options including t-shirts, polos, vests, sweaters, sweatshirts, and jumpers. Tops need

to be WA approved colors: white, black, burgundy, or gray.

 

Bottoms can be purchased from anywhere (including Land’s End) in the colors of black, tan/khaki, burgundy (a deep reddish brown color), or gray. Skirts, skorts, leggings, jeans, jumpers, dresses, cargo pants, and chinos

are all available options keeping in mind the color limitations. Clothing should not be ripped or

include distracting brands/characters. Students can wear any safe and appropriate footwear for

daily activities.

 

How can I purchase a shirt with the Windham Academy logo on it?

To purchase a top online, visit one of the links above.

For Lands End:  click on the tab labeled “school.” Then, click on “find your school” and enter Windham Academy’s school number: 900190497 . All tops and colors that are shown under that school number, are approved for use in the school. Another option is to visit the nearest Land’s End retail store at 75 Middlesex Turnpike Suite 1002, Burlington, MA 01803.

The Squadlocker link goes directly to our school stores. Please note that the "Spirit-wear" shop includes made-to-order items and may not fall under the same return policy as normal uniform items.

​

If I purchased a Windham Academy shirt in the school year of 2018/2019 from EmbroidMe, can a student still wear those in school?

Yes, if you purchased a top before the Windham Academy Spirit Wear policy was in place, that

logo top is allowed in school as long as it burgundy, gray, white, or black.

​

The Land’s End website shows bottoms for purchase, am I required to purchase bottoms

from Land’s End?

No, bottoms are not limited to Land’s End and can be purchased from anywhere. Bottoms need

to be black, gray, tan, or burgundy. Keep in mind, inexpensive pants from some retailers may

not last like uniform pants.

​

My skirt that was ordered from Land’s End is too long for my child, where can I get it

hemmed and what is the appropriate length?

Land’s End will cuff or hem pants/skirts/dresses free of charge. Visit Land’s End customer

service for help. At this time, Windham Academy does not specify a specific length. Please use

your best judgement.

​

What if I order a top from Land’s End that is too large or too small?

Land’s End offers free returns or exchanges. Call customer service on your receipt for help.

​

When layering my child’s clothing, does every top need a logo on it?

No, only one article of clothing needs to have a Windham Academy logo on it. It is preferred that

the outermost layer has it, but this is not strictly enforced. However, outer layers worn over a logo top during class must be uniform colors.

​

What happens if a student comes to school without the appropriate dress code?

The school will have limited shirts available for a student to borrow. These can be washed and

returned to the school.

​

If my family can not afford to buy uniforms, is there financial assistance available?

Yes, information on financial assistance is on the Uniform Policy Page.

​

Will there be opportunities to swap used shirts/dresses?

One of our parents set up a Facebook page to swap uniforms. Visit the page here Windham Academy Uniform Re-Sale.
