Uniforms 2023-2024

Dress Code

     As students of St. Mary Catholic School, we want to reflect modesty, dignity, humility, unity with one another, and pride in our school and parish.  Our blue and white colors reflect our devotion to our school patroness, the Blessed Mother.            

     
St. Mary students learn discipline and establish standards of behavior and mutual respect by wearing their uniform.  These characteristics lead each person, even the youngest students, to develop self-control and self-respect.

            
     
The required uniform unites the entire student body and becomes an outward sign of our common goals and purpose of St. Mary School.  Kindergarten through eighth grade students are brought together simply by wearing a shared uniform. Within our community, our school uniform distinguishes our students as representatives of St. Mary Catholic School.  Our uniform dress code is based on plain, sensible attire that is appropriate for both school and church. The wearing of a uniform continues the lengthy tradition in Catholic schools.

     Schoolbelles offers quality and long-lasting items with a lifetime guarantee on their products. St. Mary Families placing internet orders orders at www. Schoolbelles.com can use the St. Mary access code S2744. The store can be contacted at 734-983-0280. Direct links will be provided once the site has been fully completed. 

     In all cases where a question arises about the appropriateness of a student’s attire, the principal or the front office will act as a final arbiter.
​

     If you feel you need assistance, due to financial hardship, please contact Mr. RJ Lomas at 517-655-4038.
Schoolbelle's school code is: S2744
SPIRIT WEAR – We are excited to offer a new line of St. Mary School spirit wear as an option for school spirit days, extracurricular events or to purchase as gifts for family and friends.  This line of wear is available via the Schoolbelle's website.
SPIRITWEAR school code is: S8806
