In an effort to better acknowledge and honor the diverse backgrounds of our students, graduates may wear one (1) item of personal significance related to their ethnicity, culture, religion, nationality, race, color, and/or ancestry during Graduation only, as long as the item is consistent with Catholic church teachings and the mission of our school. 

Students may also wear a CSF/NHS honor society cord.  Caps cannot be decorated.  No other decorations or symbols are allowed. 

As a reminder, clothing containing objectionable references, symbols, words, advertising, political or propaganda that is against the philosophy of St. Francis; these are not permitted at any time.

Any Senior student interested in wearing one (1) item of personal significance related to their ethnicity, culture, religion, nationality, race, color, and/or ancestry should submit a picture of their (1) item to the Dean’s Office no later than Wednesday, May 15 at 5:00 pm for Administrative review. The earlier the better so if there are any issues there may be time to submit a second choice. 

Failure to do so will result in the student not being able to wear the item at Graduation.
