Beginning this fall, students in grades K-6  will wear IC gym uniforms on days they have physical education.   Students will wear the uniforms all day.   This will save time bcause students will not have to change clothese before and after class.   It will also help us maintain proper social distancing and eliminate use of the locker rooms.   The gym uniform policy and order form is here:  GYM UNIFORM ORDER FORM.
All sizes are available from youth small to adult xxx-large.  

Registration is open for next school year.   Families with children currently enrolled at Immaculate Conception School can register by completing a brief form in your SchoolSpeak account.
