School Uniforms and Spirit Wear

Philosophy:  The Dress Code at Bishop Fenwick is a reflection of Fenwick’s unity and community. The appearance of our students reflects their commitment to academic excellence and their feeling of school pride. Whether in band or chorus, football or field hockey, members of a team recognize that wearing the team uniform instills a sense of belonging and evokes a sense of purpose. This is the rationale for our Dress Code.

As a college preparatory high school developing students who will contribute meaningfully and compete successfully in the professional world, Bishop Fenwick recognizes that appearance, dress, and first impressions are important. Therefore, as part of the total educational experience at Bishop Fenwick, we expect our students to dress appropriately in school.

Our students are our greatest ambassadors. In all they do—from what they wear to how they act—they represent Bishop Fenwick. Wearing Fenwick colors—on the court and in the classroom—demonstrates the unique Fenwick spirit. The appearance of our students must reflect respect for the uniform they wear and the School they attend.

Finally, the Dress Code emphasizes that all are one at Fenwick. To be sure, we are not the same; we embrace our difference and we celebrate our diversity. And we are united with and equal to each other. No person is better or worse than another in our community. All persons are valued as integral to the Fenwick Family, deserving of respect and dignity. This is why we wear the Black and Gold.
