Required Uniforms for Students
Our Mother of Good Counsel School promotes a uniform dress code for all students. The use of school uniforms encourages school spirit, child safety, and a sense of community. School uniforms reduce distractions in the classroom to focus on student learning.
Please review the uniform dress code below.
Regular, Formal and PE uniforms are all available at our uniform provider: Dennis Uniform.
Students wear Formal uniforms on mass and special days (usually once a week).
Students wear PE uniforms on PE days (TK-2 - once a week, grades 3-8 - twice a week).

HAIRSTYLES
Hair should be neatly styled, combed and well groomed at all times and should never interfere with the student's vision. Boy's hair must be tapered from top to bottom; it may extend to mid-ear on the sides, above the eyebrow in the front, and above the collar in the back; special care should be taken to avoid extreme, shaved, or "trendy" hairstyles, including exaggerated step cuts. Heavy application of mousse or hair stiffeners is not allowed.
Unbecoming, bizarre, or distracting hairstyles and/or dyed hair are considered to be distracting and inappropriate and therefore will not be permitted. Any student who violates this regulation will be suspended until such time as the hair is restored to its natural condition. In all circumstances, Our Mother of Good Counsel School reserves the right to regulate unbecoming fads or fashions that reflect negatively on the school and/or person.

The following policy has been established to provide continuity in the expected attire of our students. Attendance at school-sponsored activities is also governed by the following regulations.
Students may NOT wear the following:
In all instances, Our Mother of Good Counsel School reserves the right to regulate unbecoming fads or fashions that reflect negatively on the school and/or person.
