Uniform Policies
We are a Catholic School; we expect all clothing will reflect this.
The principal will have the final decision regarding any uniform regulations or violations.
*As it is our school policy that students wear uniforms, we insist that the requirements are obeyed by all students. Full uniform is required the first day of school and every day until the last day of school. If parents are conscientious about observing their children in the morning, then we can expect the students will consider their appearance a matter of importance also. All students are expected to have a complete dress uniform as listed below. Uniforms are to be clean, neat, and in good condition. Students will be given uniform violation notices if out of uniform. Three violations will result in a detention.
