Student Handbook

 

Uniform

Lansing Catholic High School believes that clothes do not define a person. Uniforms allow everyone to be seen for who they are, not for what they have. Uniforms are required at Lansing Catholic and the complete, official uniform must be worn every day unless otherwise prescribed by the administration. 

Students are required to wear uniforms purchased from My APlus Uniforms.
