SCHOOL UNIFORM POLICY

The school uniform at St. Patrick’s High School is both a source of pride and identification for the school.  By registering at St. Patrick’s, a student is agreeing to uphold the uniform regulations from the time they arrive at school until the end of the school day, including the lunch break.  Students who fail to comply with school uniform expectations may be sent home to change into the school uniform or they may be assigned a consequence.

Uniform clothing is ordered through TOP MARKS, our supplier.  Orders are placed through the company, and clothing is sent directly to students’ homes by courier.
