Uniforms

One of the many blessings of attending the School of St. Mary is minimal drama over attire in the morning for both boys and girls.

School Uniform Guidelines

• PGC 
• UGC

Non-uniform Sweaters or Sweatshirts 
Only SOSM logoed sweaters and fleece may be worn with the school uniform. 8th-grade students may wear their class hooded sweatshirt with their uniform on non-mass days. No sweatshirts will be worn to Mass. Teachers will ask students to remove sweaters or sweatshirts which do not adhere to the guidelines. You may purchase logoed fleece and sweaters from Lands' End.

Students may wear hooded sweatshirts on Casual Days and Crusader Wear Days.

Dress Code Guidelines for 8th Grade
