Students and their parents should give considerable care to the type of clothing that is worn to school. Clothing should fit well and not be excessively tight or baggy. Clothing should be appropriate for the school environment and comfortable for play during recess. Dress standards for students in our Christian school reflect what is considered in good taste, neat and not offensive to others. Such an appearance is a positive image for the community and reflects students' pride in themselves and their school. Our dress code applies to school and BASP, as well as all school functions (i.e. trips, school play, etc.), unless otherwise designated. This dress code does not apply to Summer Kid's Club or holiday extended care. The administration reserves the right to rule any faddish style of hair, clothing, jewelry, or makeup as inappropriate.
