School Dress Code/Uniform Policy

 

The School Dress Code/Uniform Policy outlined below has been developed within the guidelines of the General Administrative Procedures (#500) of the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board, and has been endorsed by our Catholic School Council.

Board Policy states: “SCHOOL UNIFORM ITEMS, AS OUTLINED IN THE SCHOOL UNIFORM POLICY, MUST BE PURCHASED FROM THE BOARD APPROVED SUPPLIER.” (Available at R.J. McCarthy)

 

Philosophy

 

The Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board is committed to communicating Catholic ideals and values to our students. We strive to achieve the personal and social values that are attached to appropriate dress. As a Catholic community we are, therefore, committed to standards simplicity, neatness, attractiveness, modesty, equity, and good taste.

 By choosing to attend a Dufferin-Peel Catholic Secondary School, students and their parents have made a series and long-term commitment to Catholic education. The uniform is part of that commitment. It is a reflection of who we are, how we see ourselves, and how others see our school. It unites us as a community.  A school uniform should be worn proudly and must be worn in good repair. The Father Michael Goetz uniform policy of the school must be strictly adhered to.
