Dress Code
The following dress code strives to establish a standard that maximizes learning potential while attending a Christian education institution. This dress code applies to all school activities and functions including athletic events, field trips, and after school activities.
Clothes should be in good repair and clean. The fit of the clothing should be appropriate for the child, neither too small, nor too tight, nor several sizes too large. Hairstyles, jewelry, and makeup should not attract abnormal attention to a student’s overall appearance or interfere with learning. Body piercing must be limited to girl’s ears only and should not draw unusual attention. Tattoos, temporary or permanent, should not be visible.
Dress Code Violations: If the student does not follow dress code, he/she will be sent to the office for a change of clothing or will be subject to disciplinary action. PROPER CLOTHING WILL BE BROUGHT TO THE OFFICE BY THE PARENT/GUARDIAN. The student will not return to class until proper attire is worn. Violations are not negotiable and our students will present themselves appropriately. The administration reserves the right to use its discretion in deciding what attire is appropriate. The administration’s decision is final and non-negotiable.
