Uniform Changes 2010-2011:
This fall a Uniform Review Committee was formed to look at updating the St. Thomas Aquinas S.S. uniform. This committee consisted of staff, and parents (2 parent representatives from STA's Catholic School Council) who narrowed down the choices for the new Aquinas uniform. Students had the opportunity to vote for the "look" that they liked best on Friday, December 4th during their homeroom class. The two looks to be voted on were on display in the Cafetorium during all 3 lunches from December 1st to December 3rd.
The new uniform is featured in the February newsletter that just went home with report cards on Friday, February 5th. It will consist of black pants with a burgandy rugby shirt. An optional golf shirt can be purchased for the warmer weather. Footwear will consist of black shoes.
Grade 9 students starting at Aquinas in September will all be required to wear the new uniform. Students in grades 10-12 may wear it in the 2010-2011 school year if they wish. However, there will be no mixing and matching of the old and new uniform pieces. All students will be required to wear the new uniform in the 2011-2012 school year.
