GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

Our dress code’s purpose is to encourage the student to maintain a neat and modest appearance; to avoid drawing

attention to one self; to promote harmony among the students, parents and teachers; and to enhance the academic

atmosphere of Lighthouse Christian Academy.

We are requesting that all clothing (except for shoes) be obtained from Lands’ End using school code

#900070079. Any clothing obtained elsewhere should match Lands’ End color, shading, style, and design.

All uniforms are to be clean, pressed and correctly fitting.

No tight fitting, very loose or baggy clothes are permitted. Shirts must be tucked in at all times, except for days with Physical Education class.

Skirts, shorts, dresses and jumpers should be no shorter than two inches above the knee. Black or navy

athletic shorts must be worn under all skirts, dresses and jumpers but should not be visible. Pants should touch laces or tops of shoes.

White leggings worn with white socks are permitted when the temperature outside is below 40 degrees at the start of the school day. ALL leggings must be tight fitting and cover the ankle. No leggings are permitted with formal dress uniforms or gym uniform at any time. Undergarments and camisoles must NOT be visible through clothing.

Only light and natural looking make-up and light colored nail polish (pink, beige, and clear) may be worn to school. No nail art is permitted.

No henna or other tattoos are permitted.

Girls’ jewelry is limited to one watch, one necklace with small pendant and one set of modest earrings (no hoops or dangling earrings permitted at any time).

No flip flops, sandals, toeless or backless shoes may be worn at school. Boots may be worn to school during inclement weather, but then student will change into appropriate “uniform” shoes for duration of school day.

Hair must be clean and neatly styled. Hair should not cover eyes. Headbands, hair ribbons, barrettes and other hair ties must be navy, red or white with a modest design. No dyed or streaked hair (unless natural colored), extensions, wraps, feathers or inappropriate braids or hairstyles may be worn to school.
