• Everyone should test for COVID - 19 prior to returning to school from all breaks.

Parents have the primary responsibility in providing for the basic health and body care needs of their children. Children LEARN to take pride in good grooming and personal appearance. Standards have been set as to cleanliness, hairstyles, and uniforms. Boys’ hair must be styled neatly, above the collar and not below the eyebrows. Boys must be clean-shaven at all times. Ladies’ skirt lengths may not be more than three inches above the knee. No excessive clothing or hairstyles are permitted, including but not limited to hair-streaking or unnatural hair color, cut-in lines/designs, mohawks, or tails. Students may be asked to wear a hat, have their hair re-dyed, or be sent home if hairstyles are deemed excessive. Exceptions to these rules due to cultural/religious reasons must be approved by the principal. If you are unsure whether your child's hair meets the school standard please check with the school office. On the official school

Boys’ Pants:

Pants are to be worn at waist level (no low-riders, baggies, etc.) and be the proper size. Boys who wear oversized pants will be required to purchase a new pair in the proper size. Boys shall not wear pants that, when fastened, sag or fit below the waist. All pants must fit around the waist and be properly fastened. Boys in grades 5 through 8 are expected to wear a belt (solid black or brown). Boys who wear their pants incorrectly will be subject to detention or classroom suspension depending on the number of occurrences.

Jewelry:

Girls with pierced ears may wear one appropriate small stud earring per ear lobe only. No drop earrings or hoops are allowed. Multiple earnings are not permitted. The school has the right to reserve final judgment as to what is deemed appropriate. A small cross or saint’s medal may be worn inside the collar. The sacramental classes may wear the right of enrollment crosses provided by the school. No other jewelry except wrist watches (no smart watches or iwatches) may be worn. No other body piercings or tattoos are permitted.

For the safety of everyone on campus please be aware of the following drop-off and pick-up routines. The gate in the upper yard closest to the Preschool is closed and locked at 8:05 AM. This gate then remains closed for the remainder of the school day. Since we have an extended care program on campus, the gate will reopen after the last student leaves the school premises or at the latest of 6:00 PM every evening.
