Lake Wales, FL – A new dress code update will impact students attending Lake Wales Charter Secondary Schools beginning in the 2025–2026 school year. The district has announced that Bermuda length shorts will now be required for all students enrolled in secondary campuses.
The policy applies to Bok Academy South, Bok Academy North, and Lake Wales High School, and will be enforced across all settings — including standard school days, dress-down days, and special occasions.
Parents are urged to add Bermuda shorts to their back-to-school shopping lists to ensure compliance with the updated guidelines. This change is part of an ongoing effort to maintain uniformity and appropriateness in student dress across all secondary campuses.
“All secondary Lake Wales Charter Schools require Bermuda shorts for the 25-26 school year,” the district stated in a recent announcement shared on social media.
Families are reminded to check with their child’s specific school for additional dress code details or requirements.
