Our School

Dress Code

All St. Raphael Catholic School students are expected to come to school appropriately dressed: neat, clean and in a manner that reflects the aims and atmosphere of a Catholic school. Students are asked to take pride in their personal appearance. Everyone’s appearance reflects both their good judgment and respect for themselves and others. It is the parent’s duty and responsibility to ensure that each child is suitably attired. If it is deemed by the school that a student is not dressed in a proper manner, parents will be notified.

Dress Code in TCDSB Schools

All Elementary and Secondary schools within the jurisdiction of the Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB) shall adopt an Appropriate Dress Code or Uniform Dress Code. Parents are encouraged to review the local dress code at their child's school and to direct their questions to the principal or the school board.
