Next Friday, September 20, is Amana's very first Spirit Wear Day!  The school's administration has set aside one day per month, usually centered around an environmental or social awareness day, for students to wear their spirit wear and show their Amana pride.  Next Friday will be in observance of the Clean Up the World Campaign, which is the third weekend in September.   

Students who do not yet have Amana spirit wear will still get an out-of-uniform day on September 20.  The guidelines for out-of-uniform days are as follows: 

On out-of-uniform days students are expected to be dressed appropriately and modestly and maintain the level of personal hygiene and safety necessary to ensure a healthy school environment. Students are to refrain from any mode of dress which is distracting to classroom instruction or which contributes to the disruption of the normal function of the school. Amana Academy complies with the Dress Code of Fulton County Schools. 

The following types of clothing are considered inappropriate at Amana:

• Shorts and skirts that are too short: Note: Style and material may make certain garments inappropriate even at appropriate length.
• Pajamas, boxer shorts, slippers and cut-off sweat pants.
• Spandex shorts or leggings worn alone, or without a garment of appropriate length.
• Shirts or blouses that expose the midriff; "see-through" garments.
• Clothing which advertises alcohol or substances that are illegal for minors or display suggestive phrases, designs, markings, or profanities.
• Tank tops, strapless tops without wearing a jacket, and some thin, strapped tops when too much skin is exposed.
• Shirts or blouses with elongated arm openings or opened in the front or sides without an undershirt.
• Students are not to wear caps, hats, bandannas, sweat bands, or other head coverings during the school day.  Upon arrival at school students should place these items in their lockers and take them out only when leaving the campus. Students who wear hats during the school day will have them confiscated.
• Pants with holes in them, unfastened belts, exposed underwear.
• Clothing that displays weapons, violence, gang affiliations, or other logos that cause dissension.
• Chains are not allowed.
