Important to remember these things:

1. Hoodies are for 5th-8th graders only (if you purchase one for a K-4 student, they aren't permitted to wear it at school). The crewneck sweatshirt can be worn by all students K-8.
2. Please double check the size (youth or adult) and spelling of name (hoodie only).
3. All orders are final sales, no returns or refunds
4. Please don't pay for shipping. Items will NOT be shipped to your home. All apparel will be shipped to the school and should be given to your student in homeroom
