St. Anastasia Catholic School uniforms are worn when the school community gathers to celebrate an all-school liturgy or other events as specified by school staff. On uniform days, students are asked to wear approved St. Anastasia Catholic School uniform attire. Uniform descriptions for both boys and girls are available in the Parent Handbook. - Do students take field trips?
Yes! Each grade takes field trips. Locations vary by grade and may change from year-to-year.

More information on past field trips is available on individual grade classroom pages. - How old does my child need to be to start kindergarten?
