Uniforms and Dress Code

Your Subtitle Goes Here

Neatness and cleanliness in personal attire are very much a part of a child’s education and are the responsibility of both the child and the family.

A good personal appearance is expected of every student in St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic School. The uniform is expected to be worn each day of school.

If there are extenuating circumstances that affect the child’s ability to wear the uniform, the parent should contact the school.

Purchase uniforms from:

Health Forms Required

Your Subtitle Goes Here

We follow the Philadelphia School District – Student Health Services guidelines.

Parents are required to complete two medical forms (S865 and MED-1) annually as part of the enrollment process. These forms:

  • gather information about a child’s health history. This history can be vital in an emergency or should the need for any medical treatment arise while a child is in school.
  • allow the school nurse to administer Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen, or if needed Albuterol inhaler or EpiPen as prescribed by the School District’s medical Officer/pediatrician. Nurses cannot administer these medications without parental permission.
DOWNLOAD then PRINT or REQUEST a FORM from the main office:

    Required Immunizations & Physicals

    Pennsylvania law requires all students (K-12) be vaccinated while attending school. Students that DO NOT have the required vaccines may be EXCLUDED from school until they have received the appropriate vaccines or an exemption form has been submitted to your school nurse.

    Required immunization by grade can be found here.

    Make sure to download and give the following medical forms to your child’s doctor to be completed by a licensed physician and a copy submitted to STA.
