Uniforms

Spirit Shirt and Denim Day will be the first Friday of each month. Students may wear jeans. Denim should be long pants in any shade of blue with no holes. Denim skirts, overalls, shorts and dresses are NOT allowed. Students should wear either a polo shirt or a spirt shirt with the denim blue jeans.

Vista School has partnered with French Toast to provide convenient access to school approved apparel.

If you would like, for a small fee, French Toast will add an optional Vista logo to your uniform shirts and sweaters purchased through their site. You can also use the items in the Vista store to help guide you in your purchases through other uniform stores, such as Walmart, Target, Amazon, Kohls, Children’s Place, and Old Navy.

*If you would like to purchase through French Toast, please go directly to our school store: frenchtoast.com/schoolbox/schools/vista-school-QS5KPPG
