In keeping with St. Francis-St. James United School’s goal to create an environment in which students have an opportunity to experience equality, we maintain a uniform dress code. This dress code is also for students to present an image of themselves.

Occasionally the administration will designate a day on which students may be out-of-uniform. The appropriate attire will be determined at that time. Students are expected to wear the uniform on school trips unless otherwise stated.

Boys K-8

	Trousers - navy blue - cords or twill
	Socks - navy blue or white

Girls K-8

	Red/green/yellow plaid jumper grades K-5, skirt grades 6-8
	Slacks - navy blue - cords or twill
	Blouse - yellow oxford - short /long sleeved or knit (same as red)
	Socks - navy blue, yellow, white, red - knee-highs, anklets, tights
	Headbands should be neat, clean and not excessive or distracting

	Make-up: Grades K-5 are not to wear make-up. Girls in grades 6-8 may wear a small amount suitable to their age.

	All articles of clothing should be marked with the student’s name.
	Students’ hair should be neat, clean and presentable and should not be cut or arranged in a way that is distracting.
	Girls should remove extra sweaters, shirts, blouses, jeans and other colored pants worn under the uniform. Boys are to remove extra sweaters, shirts, etc. worn under the uniform.
	For health reasons, students are discouraged from wearing sweatshirts during very warm weather. Teachers may request that students not wear their sweatshirts when the temperature within classrooms is uncomfortably warm.

Non-Uniform
Out-of-uniform passes may be used only on the day designated by the principal. However, if the class is going on a field trip where uniforms are being worn, the out-of-uniform pass may not be used. Students may not wear attire with any inappropriate language or illustrations.

Refer to pages 8-9 of the Parent-Student Handbook for more details on the uniform policy at SFSJUS.
