Personal Appearance Standards

The Bible teaches Christians to be careful and discreet about their inward attitudes, as well as outward appearance. Since the Bible does not set absolute standards in dress, we have established the following standard consistent with Biblical principles. As Christians, our dress should reflect that our body is the Temple of the Holy Spirit. Our dress and appearance should be consistent with that thought. Each student is expected to wear modest, clean clothing. Clothing and jewelry are to be worn in such a way that it is not annoying or distracting to others.

• Ripped/Distressed jeans with openings above the knee are required to have leggings or patches underneath.

• No low-cut/revealing tops.

• Skirts are required to be no more than a couple of inches above the knee.

• Shorts should completely cover rear end at all times.

• No bare midriffs, tops & bottoms should overlap.

• Shirts that have logos or sayings should be free from vulgar language or suggestive innuendo.
