Our schools have a uniform policy for all students. Uniforms provide our students with a sense of identity and membership. We believe a uniform policy helps to eliminate class distinctions and affirms our belief that a student’s understanding of self should be based upon faith, character, and Christian dignity, not outward appearance. Students are required to wear uniforms on all days except those specified as dress up/dress down days by the administration.
Sioux Falls Catholic School Preschool through 6th grade students’ uniforms consist of:
- White shirts with long or short sleeves, must have a collar or turtleneck.
