When parents send their child to St. Bernadette School, it is understood that they agree to uphold the uniform policy. If a child comes to school without a complete uniform, the parents are expected to send a note to the teacher explaining why. It is expected that students come to school properly bathed, neatly dressed, in clean clothes, hair combed, clean nails, and shoes shined.
