Dress Code

Saint Margaret Mary School students wear a uniform in order to promote a feeling of equality for all children while discouraging competition in dress. The uniform provides a means of identity for the students with Saint Margaret Mary School. In addition, the uniforms are cost effective. A child can be outfitted for an entire year at less cost than a varied school wardrobe. The uniform should always be neat and in good repair. Parents and students both share in the responsibility for seeing that the Saint Margaret Mary dress code is appropriately observed and maintained. Students are expected to be in uniform every day. All uniforms must be purchased at Norman Uniforms.

Uniform Exchange Program – the cost of uniforms and the availability of usable uniforms that a child has outgrown moved Saint Margaret Mary School to begin a uniform exchange program. The concept is simple: the school will accept uniform items in clean, non-ripped, no holes and usable condition. These items will be offered to parents needing uniform items. There is no charge for this service. Please contact Mrs. Hammerle at school for additional information.
