The dress code for Saint Theresa Catholic School contributes in a very important way to the overall sense of unity as a school community. The dress code enhances the learning atmosphere, adds a sense of pride, and reduces negative competition among the students. Our students are expected to wear their uniform in a way that portrays a positive and modest self-image, conveys personal neatness and cleanliness, and 33 demonstrates an attitude of excellence in performance and achievement. All students are expected to wear the full, appropriate uniform each day. Modesty in attire is expected for students, and all staff, faculty, and volunteers, supporting any event on Saint Theresa Catholic School property or a school-sponsored activity off campus.

The School’s dress code will be maintained throughout the entire school day. Dress code infractions, determined by any faculty or staff member, the Assistant Principal, or the Headmaster include these:

• Incomplete uniform, including clothing, shoes, belts, socks.
• Unwashed, unkempt or inappropriately styled hair.
• Slovenly dress (including but not limited to untucked shirts, rolled skirts, wrong colored socks) 

Any student who does not meet the dress requirement may be subject to disciplinary action and may be asked to leave school until the infraction is corrected.

Uniform Types

STCS students have three (3) basic uniforms.

1. Daily: The standard uniform, worn on ordinary school days.
2. Dress: The dress uniform, worn on Mass days and special occasions.
3. P.E.: Worn for P.E. class by students in 6th through 8th grade. It consists of official STCS P.E. t-shirt and P.E. shorts, plain white socks, and tennis shoes. Students in 3rd through 5th Grade may bring their white tennis shoes to school on dress days for P.E. class.

The Daily and Dress uniform are not interchangeable and must be worn only on the appropriate days or for the appropriate class or setting. The dress uniform is worn on days that the students attend Mass, which is typically every Friday. If dress uniforms are to be worn on other important occasions, parents will be alerted in advance via email.
