Students at Sacred Heart School are asked to dress in a manner that is respectful and does not draw undue attention toward themselves. Clothing should be neat, clean, and modest. Please see below for details about our standardized dress code.
- Dress code includes a Sacred Heart School polo shirt (short or long sleeve) and / or a pull-over (long sleeve).
- Upper-body apparel comes in colors of green, black, and grey, and is available for purchase from JEDCO Sales, located at 2313 Hoffman Drive (across from Dan Hecht Chevrolet) in Effingham.
- JEDCO offers online ordering at https://sacredheartschooluniform.itemorder.com/shop/home/. This online store is complete with photos, sizing and color options, and detailed information regarding each apparel item. You can visit their complete website at www.jedcosales.com.
- We strongly encourage you to visit the JEDCO store for accurate sizing – especially for your first order – as items cannot be returned after being customized.
- Upon ordering, lead time on most items is two weeks.
- Jeans, dress slacks, shorts, and girls' skirts are all acceptable. They should be free of stains, rips, tears, or frayed material. Tight-fitting pants and skirts are prohibited. Jeans, denim or any other color, cannot be worn on church day.
