Dear YWA Families,
Please check your email for our uniform updates for the 2025-2026 school year! We are officially moving to the new daily formal dress uniform with Lands' End. We will give families time to purchase the required items, until October 20th, 2025. All students must wear a YWA polo with black uniform bottoms in the meantime. We will let you know when the samples arrive so you can try them on before purchasing.

Let us know if you have any questions!

Enjoy your 4th of July weekend!

Dr. Ontiveros
