The importance of School Pride.
When a new student is welcomed to Gavin Academy, we don't just provide educational materials: we provide a connection to our school. Every student, upon registration, is provided with a school uniform and t-shirt. Parents are also able to order Gavin Academy t-shirts.
They can choose to display the school colors with pride, or keep them tucked away until they attend one of our many educational trips, where the t-shirts are the way we identify other students who we may never have met before. Uniforms and student ID cards (with a unique barcode identification) are issued only by the Academy, so that our faculty and students can be recognized on trips...by us, and by one another!
In September 2014 we will also begin to offer a team sponsorship program, which allows students on city teams to apply to have their uniforms (or the cost of uniforms) donated by the academy. Our students' city teams will be able to wear the Knights red-and-black. Go, knights!
Students and their families can support our school at any time by logging onto the school store and purchasing anything from additional uniforms, to backpacks, to mouse pads.
