AAA Band Dress Code

This dress code is meant to unify the band as one performing group. It is also meant to put the focus on the music rather than on an individual performer. Please be considerate of the audience and your student’s modesty when following the dress code.

Note: Students and parents should understand that performances may be on a stage and what is appropriate when standing could be very inappropriate when sitting on a stage with an audience. Please consider the modesty of your children when selecting attire for band events.
