SOS Dress Down Days are one of our most popular in-school Fundraising Events. In 2024-25, we raised $27,797.89!

What is SOS Dress Down?

Pembroke Pines Charter School Students can dress up based on the theme of that month or wear their favorite county-approved top ($1) or bottom ($1). Students may dress up on designated days, typically every second Tuesday of the month.

Payment for dress down has been recently simplified: 

You will have the convenience of prepaying for your child(ren). Simply prepay for your child(ren) by giving us their name (first and last), school, and your child(ren)'s homeroom teacher. 

*If your child attends Academic Village or Central Middle, please list your child's 1st period teacher instead of Homeroom Teacher. This information will be sent to the school for prepayment verification.
