Student Dress Code
 

Uniform Dress Code

Through the Dress Code, LRA wants to convey the dignity of your student’s education. It is not the intention of LRA to diminish or suppress a student's personality. It is important the learning environment is not distracting to students. Additionally, a dress code and appropriate grooming is reinforced as a "life skill.” LRA has deliberately and thoughtfully created a uniform code that is simple, affordable, easy to follow and enforce. Simply put, students will need to dress appropriately for their future jobs, and learning to dress with guidelines helps students better prepare for their future. Contrary to what most students think, uniforms actually help develop individuality and personality. Freed from the shallow means of conforming to whatever is trendy, students can instead proclaim his/her presence through more meaningful methods of character, actions, reputation and speech.

The LRA uniform policy involves both the school and the home. It is the responsibility of the student to make proper choices which glorify Jesus Christ. It is the responsibility of the parents to help students make the right clothing decision. The teachers will enforce the dress code at LRA in a discreet and respectful manner. (Romans 12:2) It is intended for our dress code to be simple and straight-forward. However, our dress code policies depend on both students and parents understanding the dress requirements in both written form and in compliance with the spirit of the dress code.  Parents are responsible for their child(ren)’s compliance with our dress code policy. If a variation to the LRA Dress Code causes a distraction or is disruptive to the educational environment of the school, the final determination will be made by the principal. Please contact the school office if you have any questions.
