General Information

All boys wear light blue polo shirts which may be tucked in blue pants, or worn out of pants.  Students must wear white under shirts, which should not hang below sleeves or shirt bottoms.  Harvey Uniforms has a straight bottom boys' shirt with a logo, but any properly fitting, light blue polo shirt may be worn. 

Girls wear Jumpers with white blouses in Kindergarten through Grade 4.White banded-bottom shirts are worn in Grades 5-8, with a uniform skirt or blue slacks.

Kindergarten and Grades 1-3 wear gym clothes to school all day when they have physical education, so white shirts should be clean and properly fitted, and display the student's name. All children bring white gym shirts or Run-A-Thon shirts on gym days.   Ascension sweat pants, with logos, or other navy, plain gym pants are available from several stores, and uniform suppliers. Since Kindergarten children are often at work on the floor, a “gym style” uniform is preferred, but boys and girls can wear the "traditional" primary grades uniform, too.
