DRESS CODE

All students are expected to adhere to the dress code policy. New this year, we have divided the dress code into two sections: Elementary 1^st through 5^th grade and Secondary 6th-12^thgrade.

To ensure a suitable Christian school environment, all students must maintain a modest, neat, and clean appearance by wearing appropriate clothing. In uncertain situations, the faculty will determine the appropriateness of the attire.

As parents, you are responsible for checking your child’s clothing before they leave home to ensure they meet dress standards. If there is any doubt, please ask before buying or wearing. Failure to comply with the dress code may result in a student being unable to participate in class or activities, which will be reflected in their attendance record. In such cases, parents may be contacted to provide appropriate clothing for their child.
