Summer Information

The summer is an important time to spend time with friends and family, but also a time to get ready for the next school year. Students in most grades do have reading and math review to compete over the summer break. Please check out the information below regarding everything to prepare for the upcoming school year.

Uniforms

Student dress should reflect the professionalism that comes with being at one of the top charter schools in New Mexico, and one of the top schools across the country. The Cottonwood polo, and all other recognizable symbols of our school, serve as a reminder of our common identity, and these communicate our values to those outside of our school. 

No clothing, including masks, will depict ideology contrary to CCPS philosophies and policies, whether stated or implied. Clothes should not be a delivery system for offensive messages. To that end, clothing must be appropriate and not distracting^ to the learning environment. 

Dress Expectations will be gender neutral for all students and will be equally enforced unless there has been an exception for medical, cultural, or religious reasons made by the administration.

Please view all of our dress expectations here.
