Open Houses


In order to provide interested parents with an opportunity to see the school and meet our teachers and staff, Open Housewe hold open houses in late mid-November and late January/early February.

However, we are also always open to meeting with you individually and scheduling a tour anytime during the school year.

To arrange a tour, please contact the Elementary Campus at 703-820-7450 x16 or the Early Childhood Center at 703-573-4570. You can also email the school at info@corpuschristischool.org.



School Uniform


Corpus Christi has a long history of a school uniform both as a source of tradition and pride. We embrace the benefits of school uniforms for the following reasons:
  • Simplifies dressing and dress code
  • Reduces peer pressure and social stigmas
  • Encourages distinctions of character and personality instead of appearance
  • Places emphasis on learning, not clothing
  • Equalizes economic diversity
  • Facilitates security by identifying outsiders
  • Enhances school spirit

Our school uniforms are worn daily and change according to the season. Flynn and O'Hara is our designated uniform store, located in Fairfax, Virginia. Their website is: www.flynnohara.com.


Note that PE uniforms are purchased through the school during the first two weeks of school. Students will be fitted and receive a warm weather PE uniform right after Labor Day. The sweats will be delivered in late October/early November.




Additional Medical Forms


Our school nurse and all our medically trained teachers can help work with you to manage any individual medical needs that your child might require. Please feel free to talk with our staff if you have any questions and feel free to review the information provided below.
