School Uniform
Every student is required to be in full uniform at all times, starting the first day of school until school closes in June. Students will be given verbal notice of any violation and asked to make the necessary change immediately. If a student fails to comply with the required change a written notice will be given indicating that the dresscode/haircode policy has been violated. This note should be signed by parents and returned to school.
Friday, October 8 will be the last day for students to wear the summer uniform. Beginning Monday, October 17 all students are to wear the regular uniform.

| Summer Uniform | |

Walking shorts (with a belt) for boys and girls (K-8) with light blue golf shirt can be worn during the fall until October 15, May and June.. Knowing that the girls in Grades 6-8 do not have specific options if they do not wear the summer uniform, a golf shirt was reviewed from Flynn and O’Hara which would be appropriate for the girls to wear that does not have to be tucked inside. It has a band along the bottom which provides a finished and neat look. Therefore, we will put this on the approved list for the girls to wear when the summer uniform is permitted. It is light blue in color with the school monogram on the shirt. This would replace the white blouse if they make that choice, if not the white blouse is worn and tucked inside the skirt. It is not on the order form, but will be available at the store. A sample is available in school to review. This shirt is different from what the boys wear and what the students wear who wear the summer uniform of golf shirt and shorts. |
Gym Uniform
All students must wear the regulation blue uniform, (purchased only through Flynn and O'Hara) and sneakers.
Please make sure they have the proper uniform on the day your child is required to wear the gym uniform.
The tee shirt and shorts may be worn in the fall until October 15, May and June. The sweatpants and sweatshirt must be worn from October 15 until May. Special tees permitted on occasion at the discretion of the administration.
The gym uniform for the 2010-11 school year will change with a different more visible logo that clearly identifies Our Lady of Hope School.
This will be the uniform that will be purchased if you need to order a new uniform for your child/children. The present uniform will still be acceptable.
The uniform will continue to be purchased from Flynn and O’Hara.
More information will be provided at a later date.
