All students are expected to report to school each day wearing the required uniform. There will be out-of-uniform days which will be announced during the course of the year. On these days, clothing should be neat and appropriate for school. A good rule to follow: If you think you shouldn't wear it, you shouldn't.

Parents are primarily responsible for seeing that each student arrive to school groomed properly and wearing the appropriate clothing. Extreme or trendy hairstyles are not permitted. Boys' hair must be cut at or above the shirt collar. Earrings for girls are limited to stud or small hoops only; boys are not permitted to wear earrings in school. Other jewelry is limited to religious medals or crosses and watches.

Hats are not allowed in the school building. Headbands must be dark solid colors (black, brown or navy blue) or plaid to match the uniform.
