Why are we updating our uniforms?
Our school is going through a branding update including a new school logo that will be consistent in all the new uniforms. Additionally, there have been supply chain issues with our legacy vendor including lack of availability of the plaid fabric. This was a great opportunity to refresh our uniforms to a modern and updated look and provide easy purchase options online for our busy on-the-go families.
When does the new uniform policy go into effect?
New uniform policy goes into effect for the 2022/2023 school year.
What if my child’s existing uniform still fits?
If your child has a legacy uniform that still fits, they are allowed to wear the legacy uniform for the 2022/2023 school year to provide flexibility in the transition year. However, any new items purchased will need to follow the new uniform policy.
Where do I purchase the new uniforms?
We have partnered with French Toast, a leader in quality and affordable uniforms, and built a custom St. Gerald online store. The online store allows you to prepare for the upcoming school year without leaving your home – the items are shipped directly to you. The direct link can be found here for our online store. You can also visit www.frenchtoast.com and select “Shop by School” and search St. Gerald School.
Can I buy the new uniforms in a physical store?
All uniform items with our custom St. Gerald logo must be purchased online through our online store. French Toast does sell some of its popular basic items (i.e. navy pants) at retailers including Target, Walmart and Costco.
Are all the items listed in the online store part of the approved uniform policy?
Yes, all of the items listed in the online store are part of the new uniform policy including our new grey quarter zip custom fleece that can be worn over a uniform shirt in colder weather.
Can I still shop at Schoolbelles for our uniforms?
Schoolbelles is no longer our uniform supplier.
When is the online store open?
The online store is currently open and will be available 24/7 for your convenience.
When should I place my order for the fall?
We recommend placing your order as early as possible to ensure receipt of your items prior to the school year beginning in August.
What are the standard shipping times?
French Toast is currently shipping in-stock items within 2-3 days from date of purchase. Please allow an additional 7-10 days for orders with the St. Gerald embroidery, unless otherwise stated.
Am I able to order via phone?
French Toast Customer Service Representatives are available to assist you 7 a.m. - 12 a.m. EST, 7 days a week. Please call: 1-800-FRENCHTOAST (1-800-373-6248).
Will the gym uniforms be changing too?
The gym uniforms will remain the same for the 2022/2023 school year.
What do I do with my old uniforms?
