Uniforms

 
3 k-12 students in uniform.

International Leadership of Texas requires all students to wear a uniform. Any additions or modifications to the uniform due to medical, religious or other reasons must be approved by the campus principal.

Tell me about free uniforms?

ILTexas is listening to parents and removing obstacles so students can focus on opportunity, leadership, language acquisition, and academic success. We are pleased to announce that a U.S. Donor has agreed to cover the costs for major uniform items for all students who are new to ILTexas and are enrolling for the first time at Richmond K8, Orem K8, and Pearland K8. No taxpayer dollars are used to fund this program. Any student who is joining these three specific campuses for the first time as a new ILTexas student will have the costs of their major uniform items covered. More specific information will be sent directly to those new students and their families with details about sizing, ordering, and pickup at Academic Outfitters, which is located at:

Academic Outfitters, 5475 West Loop S. #150, Houston, TX 77081.

Why School Uniforms?

School uniforms help put a student’s focus where it belongs. Your child’s true personality is most fully nurtured and refined when their school environment puts the focus on who they are, not on what they wear. Any parent who has experienced the change that occurs after the transition from street clothes to school uniforms will agree! Not a single school that introduces a new uniform program ever lets it expire or be overturned. After experiencing the difference school uniforms make, you will wonder how you, your student, and your school ever went without them!

When a student wears a school uniform, it:

  • Eliminates school wardrobe debates, hassles, and delays in the morning
  • Eliminates peer pressure and competition
  • Creates a safe, focused school environment
  • Fosters unity among diverse student populations
  • Puts the focus on students’ true personalities
  • Saves family money
  • Increases school revenue
  • School Uniforms Let Your Child’s True Colors Shine!

Are all uniforms the same across ILTexas?

Yes. Uniforms are the same across all ILTexas campuses to ensure consistency, unity, and school pride.

What if I don’t have a uniform on the first day of school?

We encourage all students to attend classes on the first day of school, even if they don’t yet have a uniform. Uniforms can be purchased or obtained shortly after, and your campus staff can provide guidance on how to get them.

What is the shoe policy?

  • Girls: Solid white shoes with white laces or Velcro

  • Boys: Solid black shoes with black laces or Velcro

  • Additional Notes:

    • Shoes and shoelaces should be kept in good condition and replaced as needed

    • K–8 students: Athletic shoes are allowed daily
