Uniform Policy

It is HFCS policy that our students wear uniforms. Our uniforms serve many functions: to remove the pressures that students face to keep up with the latest and most expensive trends, to promote an environment of academic achievement through the business-like attire students wear, and most importantly, to ensure that we promote our identity as a Catholic school through our outward appearance. Our uniforms unify our children into a student body, striving together to learn and grow closer to Christ.

Uniform Vendors

The majority of our uniform clothing must be purchased through our two vendors: Dennis Uniforms and Sub Terra. Although Dennis Uniforms can be purchased in Spokane, there is also the option to order online through their website: Dennis Uniforms. To order from Sub Terra, please use this order form: Sub Terra. Gently used uniform clothing can be purchased at Holy Family Catholic School through Angel Rethreads at discounted prices. Angel Rethreads is a sponsored by Parents In Education (PIE), our parent volunteer group. PIE uses these funds to support the many events they sponsor throughout the year.

Our Uniform Policy in a Nutshell:

On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, students wear “casual” uniforms. These consist of blue or green logo polos (or a plain white polo) and navy slacks/shorts/skorts. Middle school students have the option of wearing khaki slacks.
On Tuesdays, students wear “Mass” uniforms. For the ladies, the Mass uniforms consist of jumpers/skirts, a white blouse, and a vest or sweater (see uniform policy for specific age requirements). Gentlemen wear navy slacks, a white dress shirt, and a vest or sweater (see uniform policy for specific age requirements). Starting in 2nd grade, the gentlemen also wear ties.
On Fridays, students can wear “Spirit Wear.” These are t-shirts and sweatshirts designed and sold by Student Council. Jeans can be worn with Spirit shirts.
The last Friday of every month is “Free Dress Day!” This is the day that students can wear jeans, dresses, and other clothing that meets our Free Dress guidelines.
Middle school students have a PE uniform requirement in addition to the daily uniform requirements.
