DeLaSalle will celebrate its Catholic identity during Catholic Schools Week, while also giving students an escape from winter through Winterfest.

As a reminder, all out-of-uniform guidelines from the Student-Parent handbook are in effect for Winterfest Week: This means “No yoga pants, halter tops, tank tops, or bare midriffs; no sunglasses; and only knee length shorts and skits will be permitted” at any time during the week. Students in violation of these guidelines will be required to wear a uniform from the loaner closet.

• Today’s Out of Uniform: Pajama Day
  Come to school looking like you just rolled out of bed, bring a blanket or your favorite stuffed animal.

• Tomorrow’s Out of Uniform: Fan Friday
  Islanders may dress in support of their favorite band, team or sport.
