St. Elizabeth Catholic School

Uniform Policy

It is the policy of St. Elizabeth School to have all students wear a uniform.  The purpose of the uniform is to identify students as members of the St. Elizabeth School community and to promote an appropriate, non-distracting learning environment. As such, the uniform is to be worn with pride and is to be worn correctly.  To do anything less diminishes the school and the values and goals the school embraces.

St. Elizabeth School students are to be dressed in the prescribed school uniform at all times. School uniform items can be purchased through March Uniforms 12 N. Washington St., Rockville, MD  20850; telephone (301) 217-9273.

Extreme hair styles, dyed or colored hair, make-up, colored nail polish, and any extreme fashion trends are not permitted. Girls may wear earrings: studs only, one earring in the lobe of each ear.  A chain (no string) and a cross/religious pendant as well as a watch and one bracelet may be worn. Skirts are to be of a modest length.  The skirt will be no shorter than two inches above the knee.  Parents and guardians should take into consideration student growth when cutting material for hemming. 

The final decision on appropriate dress is left to the absolute discretion of the principal and/or vice-principal.
