GUIDELINES FOR WEARING THE SCHOOL UNIFORM

The school uniform is intended to develop a sense of pride and self-discipline and unites us as a Catholic Learning Community.

The Board tendered our uniform products and R.J. McCarthy is our official uniform supplier. This was done in an effort to standardize the uniform across the school board and to make our uniform more resistant to fashion and style influences. In making the decision to attend HolyTrinityCatholicSecondary School students and parents have made a commitment to comply with and support the school uniform policy.

ALL UNIFORM ITEMS ARE AVAILABLE ONLY AT THE
