Our uniform dress code contributes in a very important way to the overall sense of unity as a school community. The dress code enhances our learning atmosphere, adds a sense of pride and reduces negative competition among the students. All St. James students are expected to wear their uniform in a manner that portrays a positive and modest self-image, personal neatness and cleanliness, and demonstrates an attitude of excellence in performance and achievement. All students are expected to be in the full appropriate uniform each day.
