We welcome all interested parents and students to St. Augustin Catholic School. If needed, monies are available to help defray the cost of the specific uniform requirements. Please call the school principal at (515) 279-5947, and they will be happy to assist you. 

Spirit Wear

Spirit Wear is available to purchase through Engler Embroidery. Note that spirit wear just needs to support our school - it does not need to be royal or yellow/gold. There are some fun colors of shirts available for purchase and these are all acceptable for Blue and Gold Days. 

Blue and Gold Days

Blue and Gold days are generally scheduled on the last Friday of each month. Students may wear jeans at a St. Augustin Catholic School spirit-wear T-shirt, sweatshirt or uniform shirt when they bring $1 to donate to a chosen charity. 

Out-of-Uniform Days

On occasion, the principal may designate a "jean day" or "out-of-uniform" day when students can wear jeans and an appropriate shirt without paying the $1 donation. All clothing must be appropriate for a Catholic school setting. Students may go out of uniform on their birthday or a day near their birthday. Students with summer birthdays may make arrangements with their teacher to designate a day to use their birthday pass.
