NOTES:
Gym days: On gym days students can wear the new activity uniform for the 2021-2022 academic year.
Shoes: School shoes must be Brown or Black with non-marking soles. They must be loafer, dress or tie shoes with no other colors or designs. They should be sturdy and supportive. Sneakers are ONLY allowed on gym day with their activity uniform. Boots may ONLY be worn to and from school during winter months; students must change into appropriate shoes for the school day.
Sweatpants: During Winter months, the girls may wear blue, green or gray sweatpants under their uniform ONLY for arrival, recess, and dismissal. They may not be worn during the school day.
Accessories: For boys, a belt should always be worn, and pants should always be worn at their waist. For girls, there should be no make-up, nail polish, or artificial nails. Jewelry is limited to post earrings (no drop earrings), a watch, one simple ring or one simple cross or holy medal necklace. Body piercing and Body art are not permitted.
Hair: All students’ hair should be neat. All bangs should be above the eyebrows so as not to hang in front of the face. Hair ties should be worn in the hair, not as bracelets. Headbands, clips or barrettes need to be simple. Extreme hairstyles and colors are not permitted. Coloring of the hair is not permitted.
Uniform: The school uniform is meant to help us show our school pride. Therefore, it should be clean and neat with all buttons and hems intact. The length of the girls’ skirts must be to the knee or slightly above the knee.
