Corpus Christi Catholic School
Uniform & Dress Code

Please read and follow the guidelines for the appropriate area:

K-4, 5-8, Physical Education and Non-Uniform.

Purpose of the Uniform
The students at Corpus Christi Catholic School wear a uniform to foster the uniformity in appearance and to promote that learning is a daily focus, not a competition in fashion. The uniform policy stresses neatness and cleanliness.

NOTE: ALL STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO ATTEND SCHOOL IN UNIFORM, UNLESS OTHERWISE DESIGNATED BY THE SCHOOL. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT PARENTS WRITE THEIR CHILD’S INITIALS ON THE TAGS OF THEIR UNIFORMS/COATS TO ENSURE THAT LOST ITEMS ARE RETURNED TO THEIR RIGHTFUL OWNER.

Gym Day

Grades K-4

  • Students change into plain navy sweatpants or shorts. Any Corpus Christi logo shirt or t-shirt may be worn (ex. Walk-a-thon t-shirts, Tenderfeet t-shirts, etc.)

ALL STUDENTS
Personal Hygiene and Appearance

  • At all times, students are expected to maintain an age appropriate, tidy, and modest appearance.
  • Makeup and fingernail polish are not permitted.
  • Hair must be kept neat, out of student’s eyes, natural color and not distracting.
  • Boys’ hair must be cut above eyebrows, earlobes and shirt collar.
  • Students feel good about themselves when they arrive at school well-groomed, clean and refreshed.
  • Clean clothes, bodies and a good breakfast allow children to concentrate on school and its happenings, rather than on concern for how they look and feel due to lack of good personal hygiene or grooming habits.
