The dress code provides a standard for our students that foster an environment conducive to learning and respectful behavior. |
|
The virtues of modesty and good grooming are essential parts of instruction in Christian behavior. Parents will help students comply with the dress code standard by providing their children with the proper apparel. Teachers will dress appropriately to serve as positive role models.
Hunter green, white, and black are the colors prescribed in St. Patrick School dress code. The dress code is to be observed in grades 1-8 from the first to the last day of school. No uniforms are required for the Kindergarten students.
Each day, to insure adherence to our dress code policy, each teacher will conduct a uniform check immediately following prayer and announcements.
If a student is in violation of the dress code, the parent will immediately be called and given the opportunity to rectify the infraction.
