Uniforms
The uniform is a tradition of Saint Benedict Catholic School and encourages respect, professionalism, and a sense of equality among students.
It is the responsibility of the parents to help make sure that all children wear the proper uniform. 
If a child comes to school with an improper uniform, they will be asked to correct the uniform, and they will receive disciplinary consequences. If an item is missing or cannot be removed, the parent may be called and the student’s uniform must be corrected before they may return to class. Any work missed must be made up after school.
