Dress Code & Uniform Exchange

Uniforms will be worn every day unless designated as a Color Day. Scheduled color days will
be the first and third Mondays of each month.

Uniform code pertains to grades Kindergarten through Sixth. Uniforms are worn from the first
day of school until the last day of school. Uniforms may be purchased through French Toast
(school code QS455H5) and Land’s End (school code 9001-0169-2) catalogs or some items
are available at the Cheboygan K-Mart store. Uniforms may be purchased from any store as
long as they conform to the uniform guidelines. Spirit wear sweatshirts are available through
the school office.

To support our foster child Susanna and the St. Thomas Pantry, a Dress-Down Day will be
offered on the last Wednesday of each month. Students will be notified when to bring in
either $1.00 or canned goods for these worthy events. Dress-Down Day attire is as follows:
Jeans, cargo pants, camouflage (during September, May and June, shorts of appropriate
length or jean capris) must cover underclothing. Jean skirts or dresses, one inch or less
above the knee, are allowed. Team shirts or other appropriate T-shirts are also allowed.
Tennis shoes, low-heeled shoes or sandals with a back strap and stockings can be worn.

Uniform Exchange
The old adage “waste not, want not” is an excellent way to describe the uniform exchange.
In an attempt to reduce the cost of buying uniforms, and to keep good clothes from going to
waste, school parents have developed an informal uniform exchange. Each year at our
"Welcome Back" Ice-cream Social and at our Open House, parents bring in school clothes
that their children have outgrown but are still in good condition. Simply add your donation to
the piles of clothes and “shop” for some new uniforms. The clothes that are left over after
the exchange are stored at the school where they are available anytime to parents who
may wish to make a trade.
