Uniforms!

Make sure you are familiar with our school uniform policy! https://steugeneschool.org/uniform-policy You can also visit Flynn O'Hara to see what our uniforms look like. Note that not all items on Flynn O'Hara's site are required uniform items.


Uniform FAQs: For 1st-8th, Thursday Mass uniform is required whether a student is going to mass or live streaming.


Spirit Tee Tuesday is EVERY Tuesday! - Students may wear their regular uniform or a St. Eugene spirit tee with jeans or uniform bottoms.

ClassTag - please sign up!

Teachers have sent or will send home information about ClassTag.


ClassTag serves two communication purposes:


1) Teachers can pin announcements, newsletters, reminder and even class photos to keep you in the loop!

2) School Info Alerts are shared in “quick bits” to alert parents to specific info such as reminders, events, important alerts, etc.


You should set your ClassTag account so that you receive an “alert” on your phone much like a text pops up. Your own phone settings control set sound. ClassTag is only used by teachers and school staff. All parents should have an activation code. Middle School codes are coming. If you do not receive one, please contact your child’s teacher. Every student should have a parent/guardian connected to their ClassTag classroom - ideally all guardians would be connected in case we need to push out an alert.
