Dress Code

 
Francophone’s student dress code promotes equitable educational access and is designed to avoid perpetuating stereotypes. School staff shall enforce the dress code consistently and in a manner that does not cause marginalization or oppression of any group based on race, sex, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, cultural observance, household income or body type/size.

Additionally, our parent association regularly organizes Francophone merchandise sales as it becomes available.
