If a student is out of dress code they will be given a dress code slip that needs to be signed by the parent/guardian and returned the next day.  If a student receives a second dress code slip, parents will receive a phone call from the principal.  If a child is out of dress code after that, parents will be called and asked to bring appropriate clothing.

During the school year, certain days will be designated as out of dress code days.  When students are out of dress code they must still dress appropriately for school.   On out of dress code days students may wear St. Mary or P-W t-shirts and sweatshirts.
