Uniform Dress Code


Uniforms may be ordered and or purchased through
Educational Outfitter’s http://www.educationaloutfitters.com/detroit or 248-426-7273
 
Our Lady Queen of Martyrs Dress CodeAt OLQM Catholic School students are expected to dress and conduct themselves in a manner that is respectful  of their dignity as children of God. Neatness, cleanliness, and a well-groomed appearance are expected.
A uniform dress code reinforces in students a pride in their own appearance, instills recognition of themselves as an integral part of the school community, and assists in developing pride in representing their school. The overwhelming benefit of a school uniform is increased focus on learning.

Students  in Grades K through 8 are required to wear the school uniform. Since buying clothing is a family function, parents are expected to purchase clothing that will meet the standards set forth in the dress code policy. This  policy is written so that it is easy for students and parents to adhere to and easy for teachers and administration  to enforce.
