High School Uniform Requirements (Grades 9-12):

Daily Service Uniform

2026-27: Due to the Army’s reduced JROTC budget and current JROTC Regulation 145-2, CBA JROTC is no longer able to supply and support the school’s daily uniform requirement. While this represents a change from past practice, our commitment to maintaining a strong and structured JROTC program remains unchanged.

The CBA JROTC Department will continue to issue key uniform components to all cadets, including black jackets, shoes, belts, belt buckles, ties, rank, and other required uniform items. These items will be distributed prior to the start of the school year on the following dates: August 26th from 8:00am-12:00 and August 27th from 12:00-4:00pm. This is for incoming Freshmen and new cadets. Exchanges will continue to be available for all cadets throughout the year as needed.  One key change to the uniform is that the rank will now be a pin worn on the collar instead of on the shoulders.

Additionally, if you would like to purchase the black uniform sweater, it can only be done through the CBA website by clicking this link. If the link does not work, you can go to cbaalbany.org, click “Parents and Students” from and choose “Quartermaster Form” from the dropdown menu to purchase necessary items.

As CBA requires each cadet to wear a daily uniform, families will now coordinate the purchase of uniform items directly through Student Styles.  In working with Student Styles, they are able to provide a high school package of 2 shirts and two pairs of pants for $125. Student Styles can be contacted at 518-220-9244 or by visiting their website at https://student-styles.myshopify.com/

Dress Blues are worn every Friday and for special events. The jacket and pants may be rented or purchased at Student Styles. In addition, students will also need:

  • White dress shirt (without patterns; no button-down collar)
  • White dress pants – these are required after April 1
Accessories

Accessories for Dress Blues (hat kit) may be purchased through the CBA Hat Kit Order Form. Accessories will be used all four years of high school.
