Granada Elementary School follows the Alhambra Unified School District (AUSD) Uniform Policy for students in Transitional Kindergarten through 8th grade. While we encourage families to follow the district's uniform guidelines whenever possible, our primary focus is ensuring that every student is at school every day, on time, ready to learn. We never want concerns about obtaining a school uniform to become a barrier to student attendance.
We ask all students to follow the AUSD Dress Policy by wearing clothing that is safe, appropriate for school, and allows them to fully participate in learning and physical activities. At Granada, we embrace and celebrate the uniqueness of every student while maintaining a respectful and positive learning environment.
Families are encouraged to have students wear school uniforms and/or Granada spirit wear when able. Wearing uniforms or spirit wear helps build school pride, strengthens our sense of community, and can make busy mornings easier by simplifying the daily routine for both students and families.

- Shirts or Blouses: Navy blue, white, or school colors
