Are students required to wear uniforms?

Yes! We think of school as a student’s job and the uniform as professional attire. For this reason, all students must wear an Invictus top— this can be a sweater or polo with our school’s seal— and black, khaki, grey, or navy bottoms.

Yes, we provide ALL students breakfast and lunch completely free of charge!
