Uniform Policy
Section 5-Dress Code
5.1 General Regulations
In order to encourage the environment of unity and school pride, it is the policy of St. Paul Catholic School that a school issued uniform shall be worn by all students. Each day students are expected to be clean, well groomed, and uniforms are to be in good repair. School uniforms are available through the school only. The Principal will announce casual days or exceptions to the uniform code. Parents will be notified of any changes in the uniform code.
5.2 Dress Code
Monday-Thursday Wear
TOPS: Hunter Green or Navy
OUTERWEAR: Students can wear any coat or jacket from home to school and outdoors (recess and walking to church or gym). However, these are not considered part of the uniform/dress code so they cannot be kept on inside the building. Students can bring gloves, scarves and hats, but are responsible for keeping up with these items. St. Paul jackets, zip-up hoodies, sweatshirts can be worn inside the building because they are considered uniform. *Anything purchased from school as a uniform can be worn all day.
