Kindergarten – 5th grade students will have one free dress Friday a month (last Friday of the month). In addition, they may also purchase a coupon book from the student council that allows them an additional 6 free dress Fridays throughout the year. Parent Club also gives free dress coupons for fundraising prizes and incentives for certain programs such as recycling. All Free Dress Coupons must be used on FRIDAYS ONLY. The school office will also offer free dress at their discretion for special holidays and events.

St. Patrick School considers the non-compliance of dress code to be a disrespect issue and disciplinary action will take place for repeated offenses. A detailed code of rules and consequences for dress code violations will be sent home with all students at the beginning of each school year.
