MCES Dress Code: Young 5s through 8th grade
​

The dress code at Monroe Catholic Elementary Schools reflects our commitment to creating a respectful, faith-centered learning environment. Rooted in the values of modesty, discipline, and equality, the dress code helps students focus on academics and spiritual growth rather than outward appearance. It promotes a sense of unity, minimizes distractions, and reinforces our shared identity as a Catholic community. By dressing appropriately, students show respect for themselves, their peers, and the mission of the school.
