Procedures for Ordering Letter Jackets and Letters<br />
<strong>Aldine</strong> ISD awards letter jackets and letters to eligible students. Any additional purchases are the<br />
responsibility of the student.<br />
1. At the beginning of the school year, with the vendor, sizing dates will be scheduled. These<br />
dates will be publicized through the office of the director of athletics and the executive<br />
director of curriculum and instruction.<br />
2. A list(s) of eligible students are submitted by the sponsor to the designated campus<br />
administrator who will cross reference each list with the campus data base to ensure<br />
students receive only one letter jacket. The revised list will be returned to the coach or<br />
sponsor.<br />
3. The coach or sponsor sends a copy of the list of eligible students for jackets and/or letters to<br />
the appropriate program director or director for final verification that students have met all<br />
requirements.<br />
4. The director/program director sends the completed vendor forms listing eligible students<br />
along with the ordering packet and date(s) of sizing to the coach, sponsor, or designated<br />
campus administrator.<br />
5. The coach or sponsor provides all eligible students with the ordering packet along with the<br />
date and time of the sizing no less than 5 school days prior to the sizing date.<br />
6. The vendor collects the appropriate forms from the coach or sponsor on the sizing date,<br />
verifying the students to be fitted. Students must provide payment to the vendor for the<br />
extra patches/emblems at the time of sizing.<br />
7. Upon completion of sizing and orders taken for all high schools, the vendor processes and<br />
delivers the orders to the appropriate program director, director, or executive director<br />
