The purpose of the school uniform policy is to encourage our students to experience a greater sense of school identity and belonging, to reduce school clothing costs, and to help students build habits of professional dress.
Families may purchase uniform clothing at:
- Any store that carries short- and long-sleeved plain polo shirts (red, white, or navy), plain crew neck sweatshirts or sweaters (red, white, or navy), and uniform-style shorts and pants

Winter Weather
- Students need to wear appropriate clothing for winter recess (boots, hats, mittens/gloves). Please make sure that students are prepared for outdoor recess every day. For days when winter/rain boots are worn to school, please make sure to bring another pair of shoes to change for the remainder of the day.
SPIRITWEAR
Every second and fourth Friday of each month, our students can wear spiritwear apparel to school instead of their usual uniforms. It's not only fun for the students but a great way for them to show school spirit! There are a variety of spiritwear shirt and apparel designs that have been created over the years. Some of the t-shirts have been provided to the students by the school (included in tuition) and many others have been designed and made available for purchase through our online spiritwear vendor store for a limited time, usually in the fall, winter and spring.
