Dear Walter P. Carter Families,
We’re excited to share an important uniform update for the upcoming school year! 👕👖
🆕 5th grade students will now wear red polo shirts to align with our elementary school colors. Here’s the updated uniform guide:
Pre-K through 5th Grade: Red polo shirts with khaki bottoms
6th through 8th Grade: Black polo shirts with khaki bottoms
This update helps us build a stronger sense of unity and school pride as we kick off a great year ahead! đź’›
Our school is a uniform school, and all students are expected to arrive each day in full uniform, ready to learn. Consistent dress supports a focused and respectful learning environment. Thank you for your partnership!
For full uniform details, please visit our website or call the main office at 410-396-6271.
Thank you for your support!
Walter P. Carter Leadership Team
