Note: St. John the Evangelist Catholic School "Spirit Wear" is permitted.

Students are expected to dress in a comfortable, neat, clean, and practical manner. The dress code also applies during school excursions and activities, unless otherwise specified.

If a student is inappropriately dressed or out of uniform, parents will be notified. The student may be sent home to change or provided with an alternate garment. If dress code violations continue, parents may be asked to attend a meeting to resolve the issue.

We appreciate your support in maintaining these standards.
