Controversy

Non-Uniform Day Enforcement

On March 22, 2012, approximately 200 to 300 students were sent home due to wearing either shorts, khakis, capris and/or ankle socks, sparking outrage amongst students and parents. The staff at St. Mary claims the rule was in the student agenda, reminded the students about the rule the day before, and dismissed allegations of student suspensions.[1][2][3]
