OLPH School

Uniforms

All OLPH students are required to wear the official school uniform. Every student in Grades Pre-K through 8 must be in complete uniform at all times. Students have the option of wearing the summer uniform from the first day of school through mid-October and from mid-April through the last day of school. It is recommended that the winter uniform be worn on any cold days within that time period. Winter dress code is in effect from mid-October through mid-April. During very cold weather, girls may wear their navy sweatpants under their jumper or skirt to and from school but must remove them for class. P.E. uniforms are worn to and from school on the student’s scheduled P.E. class day.

A written note from the parent will be required to excuse a student from uniform. Failure to be in uniform without a note may result in a warning, lunch detention or in-school suspension for persistent uniform violations, as determined by the administration. Middle School students will receive appropriate discipline for uniform violations.
