Alexander Robertson School students are required to wear a school uniform, which, by design, is comfortable, easy and eliminates any early morning design making. Students wear a white collared shirt, navy pants and white, blue or black sneakers or shoes. On days that they have P.E., they wear an Alexander Robertson t-shirts, sweatshirts and sweatpants. On Friday, our assembly day, students add a navy blazer with our school crest on it to their uniform. Our uniform supplier is Lands’ End.
