Dress Code

School Board policy requires that children come to school dressed neatly and in an appropriate manner.

At Our Lady of Wisdom, we have a very functional uniform which is available for students to wear.

	In a Catholic school where values and respect for self and others are emphasized, bare midriffs and shirts with rude or suggestive messages are not acceptable.
	Shirts, tee-shirts and dresses which cover the area from the neck to the shoulder are permitted.
	Tank tops, tight fitting tops, low cut sun dresses or sun tops are inappropriate for school wear.
	Shorts and skirts should be no shorter than 10cm. from the knee.
	For safety purposes, platform shoes and sandals without straps are not acceptable. The wearing of hats is not permitted inside the school.

Adherence to the dress code will enable students to concentrate at school on their studies. Parents will be notified of infractions and students will either be sent home or provided with other clothing to wear.
