Uniform Requirements: The School uniform symbolizes and reminds students of solidarity and unity of purpose. It is to be worn as intended, that is, simply, without adornment, and without faddish adaptation so as to focus our school community on each child’s individuality and not their outward appearances. Uniforms are required for all students at St. Patrick Cathedral School. A student out of uniform without an excuse will be sent to the office. If the items for proper dress are available, the office will provide
them at a rental cost. If items are not available, the office will call the parents to bring the proper attire. Uniforms must be worn all day. A list of designated uniform suppliers is available in the school office.
