Dress Code

Each school shall establish standards for student dress which will promote cleanliness, health, safety, and the development of Christian values.  (Diocesan School Board, January 1985.)  The uniform is an integral part of the school’s educational policy.  It must be adhered to by all registered families.  Each uniform should be clearly labeled with the child’s name and grade.  It is the student’s responsibility to take pride in his/her school uniform, and the parents/guardians responsibility to encourage his/her child to come to school with a clean and neat uniform. 

All students of Our Lady of Perpetual Help School are expected to arrive and depart from school in a proper fitted complete uniform.  Only in extreme cases will a student be allowed in class without the full uniform.  In such a case, a written note from the parent/guardian is required.  Should a student be out of uniform and without a note, the student will be sent to the office and parent/guardian will be called in order that the correct uniform is brought to school.  If parent/guardian is not available, a student will be given a note to take home.  It must be signed by parent/guardian and returned the next day.  Failure to comply with dress code may result in an “out-of-uniform” notice.  Frequent disregard of the dress code may imply a disregard of school rules and be reflected in the Conduct grade.

The school uniform is reviewed on an annual basis.  Decisions are made in conjunction with the principal, staff, and parent committee.  All uniforms must be purchased from Norman’s Uniforms.  The location, time and hours, and other information can be obtained from the office.
