Uniform Policy

The uniform a hallmark of classical Catholic education. It helps knit together the learning community, creates a visible token of unity and solidarity, establishes a tone of academic seriousness for the classroom, and provides a diverse student body with an even and attractive self-presentation.

All students must be in uniform every day, unless an explicit exception is made. If there is a time when the prescribed uniform cannot for some legitimate reason be worn, a note from the parent/guardian must be written to the headmaster. Please refer to the Family Handbook for more details.

CHANTICLEER CLOSET

The Chanticleer Closet is a collection of gently used OLMC/LGA uniform pieces, giving families the opportunity to pass on outgrown items to another loving home—completely free of charge. It’s a simple way for us to support one another (because let’s be honest, we all know the “I-can’t-find-my-shirt” morning scramble). At the same time, it honors the work that went into creating these uniforms by extending their life and use just a little bit longer.

  • If you have items to GET: Our uniform closet is available at certain times throughout the year. Stay tuned for details through the Weekly Update.

  • If you have items to GIVE: We periodically collect freshly laundered items in any condition (repairs are our forté)! Stay tuned for details through the Weekly Update.

  • Volunteers are often needed to help set up and “operate” the closet! Please reach out to Paulette Snyder at paulettemsnyder@gmail.com with any questions, if you want to help (counts for SPUR hours!), or if you have specific uniform needs. Thank you for your participation!

Unless otherwise noted in the Uniform Guide, uniform pieces must be purchased from Flynn O’Hara.
