UNIFORMS (updated Summer 2023)
At St Nicholas School we believe that wearing a uniform promotes peer acceptance and school pride, lessens the emphasis on fashion, enhances academic focus, and makes life easier for parents.
Uniforms should be kept clean and shoes polished. We ask all students to be midful of the appearance of their uniform by tucking in shirts or blouses and attending to proper length of skirts.
Please label your childs clothes so if an item is misplaced they can be identified and returned.
A complete uniform should be worn every day.
Uniforms are required unless it's a PE day, Tag day or picture day.
Uniforms can be purchased from:

TAG DAY/DRESS DOWN DAY GUIDELINES:
On dress-down days, students may come to school in clothes of their choice, as long as those clothes observe the following:- Closed toe shoes must be worn
- Shorts/ skirts must be mid-thigh or longer
- Offensive pictures, designs, logos and /or words on clothing are not permitted
UNIFORM EXCHANGE PROGRAM:
The Uniform Exchange Program is a service that the St Nicholas School Home School Association (HSA) offers to all who attend the school.
Using the Uniform Exchange is a great way to clothe your child in a previously worn uniform attire at no cost.
Here is a brief overview of how the program is set up to function:- Gently used uniforms are turned into the HSA program
- All pieces are inspected and sorted
- Exchange dates will be announced throughout the year
It is not necessary to have an exchange in order to use the Uniform Exchange.
Donations of gently used uniforms are what keep this program running.
The Uniform Exchange operates on a first come/first serve basis. We do our very best, but we cannot guarantee the availability of all items.
On EXCEPTION Parents may request additional pieces; link to form provided below.
Exceptions:- Damaged clothing
- New students
Requests are reviewed by HSA every two weeks and IF AVAILABLE items will be sent home with your child.
Items you request if available will be sent home with your child within 10 business days. If items do not fit your needs, please return them to the school and they will be placed back in available inventory.
All uniform requests must be through the form, please remember to add your email address in the event we might have questions.
