General Guidelines:

  1. The primary purpose of the Dress Code Policy is to establish guidelines for modesty and safety.  The cooperation of both the student and the parent is necessary in maintaining the standard of dress.  When students and parents assume their responsibility and both strive to adhere to the Dress Code Policy, the school is free to focus on its primary goal of building Godly character and academic competence.  Violations of the Dress Code Policy will be addressed by teachers and/or administration.  
  2. All clothing should be neat, clean, and appropriately sized, modest in cut and not distracting.  Clothing with holes, rips and/or frays is not permitted.  Form fitting clothing is not permitted.
  3. Undergarments should always be covered.
  4. Students are to follow the SJCA dress code at all times while at school and participating in extracurricular activities.
  5. All school sponsored activities, travel, banquets, ceremonies, etc. shall be attended in clothes of the same standards of modesty.  Athletic wear may have slightly different guidelines for practice and competitive uniforms.
  6. Hats or head covers (including hoods) may not be worn in any building except on special day as announced by the administrator.  Sunglasses may not be worn in the shool buildings.
  7. SJCA reserves the right to make the final decision in questionable areas of dress code.
