- Uniforms help students focus on academics
- Uniforms reduce peer pressure
- Uniforms promote modesty and dignity of human body
- Uniforms minimize distractions
- Uniforms promote school spirit
- Uniforms save time and money

Purchasing your child’s uniform
St. Mary School partners with Lands End for monogrammed uniform selections and the plaid skirt/jumper option, as well as the new middle school uniform. Click the logo below to shop online at the Lands End St. Mary School store. Enter your child’s gender and grade level for appropriate uniform selection. Other popular stores where uniform pieces can be found are: Kohls, Old Navy, the Gap, and French Toast.
St. Mary School also has a “uniform closet” of gently used uniforms where parents can swap sizes for their children. There is no cost for this service.
Jean Days
St. Mary School promotes service of others in everything we do. On the second Friday of the month, students are allowed to wear jeans and St. Mary spirit wear shirt/top in exchange for donation of a canned good or money to the Charlevoix Community Food Pantry. Please guide your students toward appropriate attire that reflects our Christ-centered environment. Through the years, our students and their families have donated thousands of dollars to our local food pantries and other worthy charitable causes.
St. Mary School Spirit Wear
We have a variety of t-shirts, sweatshirts and hats available for purchase through our “bookstore” in the case at the entry to the school/parish. Custom items can also be purchased through our local partner, Charlevoix Screenmasters.
