We take pride in the appearance of our students. Their dress reflects the quality of the school, of their conduct, and of their schoolwork. We ask your cooperation in adhering to every item of this dress code. Parents will be notified if violations of this occur and students should expect to receive a disciplinary action because of the violation. Students are required to be in uniform from the opening day of school until the closing day, unless parents receive a notice to the contrary from the school office. If, for some reason, a student is unable to be in uniform, a note from the parent/guardian must be sent with the student. Exceptions and interpretations are left to the discretion of the Faculty & Administration.
UNIFORMS MUST ALWAYS BE NEAT, CLEAN, AND UNWRINKLED. SHIRTS MUST BE TUCKED IN, SHOELACES, TIED, ETC. NO TORN OR OVERSIZED APPAREL IS PERMITTED. Whenever possible, students coming to school out-of uniform will be assisted with the necessary alterations (i.e., we will provide nail polish remover, rent ties, skirts, uniform socks, etc.). A modest fee, to be donated to the Holy Childhood Association, will be charged for this assistance. All clothing should be properly marked. Lost articles are held for a reasonable time in the office. If articles are unclaimed they are given to charity.
