Middle School students will receive Free Dress on all Fridays as long as they have not had any uniform infractions throughout the week. Any uniform infraction (including untucked shirts, no belt, and unapproved sweatshirt) will result in this privilege being revoked. No other free dress days will occur for middle school students and no free dress coupons will be given or allowed to be purchased to use on any other day other than at the discretion of the office for holidays, special circumstances.

St. Patrick School considers the non-compliance of dress code to be a disrespect issue and disciplinary action will take place for repeated offenses. Dress code will be tracked on the students’ pride sheet.
