Uniform Exchange The Home and School Association maintains a free uniform exchange located in the cafe. You are invited to take what you need and share those items that your children have outgrown.
The personal appearance of a student represents that individual. The personal appearance of the entire student body represents the school to others. Saint Mary Catholic School adheres to a strict dress code. Neatness and cleanliness in personal attire are part of a child's education and the responsibility of the parents.

This uniform is an integral part of the culture of Saint Mary Catholic School. It is a lesson in discipline, Catholic identity, and community. It is our intention to see that it serves its proper purpose. Through the cooperation of the entire school community, this will be achieved. It is the parent’s responsibility to see that students have the proper uniform, in good condition, and that children leave home dressed properly. We will enforce the dress code by weekly examination, home notification and discipline points for continued violation.
