O'Hara has a uniform dress code that was designed to foster school pride, to create a non-competitive dress environment, and to be easy for students and parents. Presenting a good appearance shows respect for each other and for one's self. In general, students have to be neat, clean and modest. The O'Hara Catholic School emblem or logo is permitted on clothing; otherwise, clothing is to be free of logos, advertising, pictures or other messages. Clothing should fit properly and allow ease of movement for participation in outdoor and other activities, but not be oversized. All undergarments are to be completely covered.
2022-23 DRESS CODE UPDATE
Families who have attended O'Hara previously, please note: we are phasing out the burgundy uniform color option, the black O'Hara Nike sweatshirts, and items featuring our old logo. White and navy polos will be the only polos available on our vendor websites, and our vendor websites have updated our embroidery options to our new/current logo featured here on the website.
“Phasing out ” means, if you have items from previous years that are burgundy or that feature the old logo, we will allow students to wear them for one more year before we complete the transition and these items are no longer in dress code. The 2022-23 school year will be the final year these items are allowed. Please do not purchase any new items that do not meet these updates.
The complete O'Hara dress code policy is included in the yearly Parent/Student Handbook.
O'Hara uniforms can be purchased at a number of locations, including:
- Lands' End (preferred school # 9000-3197-2)
- French Toast (preferred school # QS476QR)

O'HARA TEAM SWEATSHIRTS AND "MARIST MONDAYS"
O'Hara allows Middle School students ONLY to wear Catholic school sweatshirts on Mondays that are outside of the approved O'Hara Nike Sweatshirt dress code. This means sweatshirts from schools like Marist, University of Notre Dame, Gonzaga University, University of San Diego, etc. are allowed during "Marist Mondays."
O'Hara sports teams sweatshirts, designed independently by teams like volleyball, basketball and track are NOT permitted at school, despite having our school name on them. These are considered outside of dress code and students will be asked to remove them inside the building.
