LCA Uniform Guidelines - Lanier Christian Academy

LCA Dress Code
(Matthew 6:28-34; 1 Corinthians 9:19-23; 1 Peter 3:2-4; 1 Timothy 2:9, 10; James 2:1-5)
Lanier Christian Academy’s dress code is intended to honor God and encourage modesty, decency, and propriety.
Furthermore, a dress code allows the teacher to focus on academics without wasting precious classroom time. It is
expected that students always maintain high standards of modesty and decency. All elements of the dress code should be
honored inside the building upon student arrival at school and remain in effect until the end of the school day. Provisions
and standards relating to modesty and decency should be respected by the students and are enforceable by the staff
anywhere on the campus (inside the building or on the grounds) and at all times.
Visible tattoos are not allowed. Piercings are limited to girl’s ears.

I have read the NGC Dress Code and have discussed it with my child. We understand that the Dress Code has
to be self-enforced by all students and parents to be consistently enforced by the school staff. We agree to
acquire the necessary articles to abide by this Dress Code. Dress code violations will result in appropriate
consequences. Parents will be called to bring appropriate uniform before student can be admitted to class.
The administration reserves the right to determine the final standards on all fashion and/or appearance
trends.
