Dress code policy taken from the updated handbook:
School uniforms provide many benefits for a Catholic school community, including ensuring that proper modesty is maintained, that appropriate clothing is worn for Holy Mass and for other moments of prayer, and as a means of demonstrating respect for oneself and others in a serious learning community. Blessed Trinity Catholic School has had a uniform policy in place for over two decades now. Cooperation of both parents/guardians and students with the policy is essential. It is as follows.
Students are to wear:
- White, cardinal red, or dark navy-blue polo shirts (not light blue or maroon).
- Khaki or navy-blue pants and/or a skirt or jumpers for girls (skirts/jumpers must reach the end of the fingertips when having hands down by your sides; plain leggings in the colors of khaki, navy blue, white, or cardinal red are to be worn with a skirt or shorts only; leggings worn alone is a violation of the school dress code, including during Phy-Ed.)
- Khaki or navy-blue shorts may be worn in September and May, when the temperature is above 50 degrees, or as the principal permits, and must reach the end of the fingertips when having hands down by your sides.
- Mass days: boys need to have pants, girls need to have pants or a skirt/jumper
- Clothing should not be marked by a particular brand with a visible logo larger than one square inch
- Students may wear sweatshirts that are plain navy blue, cardinal red, or white with no visible logos; no hoods or hats are to be utilized in the building
- Good hygiene practices are to be followed. Hair will be neat and tidy.
- Students may bring athletic wear (i.e. graphic t-shirt and athletic shorts) for P.E. However, for girls, shorts must be mid-thigh length or longer, and wearing just leggings is unacceptable. Students who do not follow this P.E. dress code will be asked to change. Students may be refused to participate and will lose points for the day.
- Students must wear tennis shoes and have them tied; no crocs or open-toed shoes are allowed
- Students are not allowed to have unnatural hair colors.
