Overview
The uniform identifies one as a student of Our Lady of Guadalupe School. It also helps to encourage and reflect good grooming and responsible behavior and study habits. The dress code is based on modesty, neatness, cleanliness, good taste, and safety. Parents are expected to understand and support these guidelines as well as help their children make good choices about appropriate attire and grooming. Please contact the school before purchasing any items to be worn at school if you have questions or are unclear about the dress code.

OLG Spirit Day
Let’s show off our school spirit! On OLG Spirit Days, students are allowed to wear OLG Spirit Wear, anything CYO, or your uniform. OLG “Spirit Wear” is clothing with the school logo or name in lieu of uniform items. Students may also wear CYO sports uniforms. OLG Spirit Days are NOT free dress . OLG Spirit Wear is NOT to take place of uniforms. Students not wearing Spirit Wear or CYO sports uniforms on OLG Spirit Days should wear their daily school uniform. See the School Calendar for scheduled OLG Spirit Days (generally the first Friday of the month).
Spirit Wear is available for purchase on the online OLG Store. (OLG Spirit Wear (with the bull dog logo) is NOT acceptable as uniform).
Occasionally, Spirit Wear items may be available from the uniform exchange to borrow.
Free Dress / Non-Uniform Days
On the occasional Non-Uniform days, students are allowed to wear clothing of their choice, provided that it is in good condition and appropriate for school. Such days will be announced throughout the year. Spandex, jeans or pants with holes or graffiti, or ones that are too baggy or sagging and shirts with inappropriate words, slogans, or art, and ones that are oversized are never allowed. Halter-tops or any tops that do not cover the waist are not to be worn. Students may not wear hats inside the building on free dress days; the only exception to this is on Spirit Days, when the hat may be part of the theme.
** REMEMBER TO LABEL ALL CLOTHING ITEMS WITH CHILD’S NAME **
