Dress Code

There are three main principles that surround our philosophy concerning dress code.  The dress code is NOT intended to measure spirituality, but to serve as a tool to accomplish these specific goals:

Create an atmosphere free from distractions.
Build character that exhibits self-discipline, modesty, cleanliness, and submission.
Inspire the making of responsible choices.

Students representing CCCS need to give a positive testimony by their dress.

Example of collared shirt
HAIRSTYLES:
Hairstyles should not be distracting.  It is expected that boys will wear their hair cut above the ears.  Alternative styles are not acceptable for boys or girls.  Hair is to be kept neat and clean, and is to be natural shades and colors only.

CLOTHING:
CCCS has selected a specific dress code for the elementary school.  This means that specific styles and lengths have been selected.  It is the responsibility of the parents to support this specified code and for students to abide within its guidelines.

PANTS:  Are to be "uniform" in style.  All solid colors are acceptable.  They can have plain or pleated fronts.  Students may wear denim material pants in dark navy, tan and black colors.

SHIRTS:  Must have a collar (turtlenecks or mock turtlenecks are acceptable), long or short sleeves (no sleeveless).  They should be logo free.  Small crests that are the same color stitching as the shirt are acceptable.  A CCCS logo is always allowable.  All solid colors are acceptable.  Stripes and prints are allowed, but there are to be no contrast stitching logos, no lettering, no pictures, no screen prints.  Shirts must be long enough to stay tucked in when students raise their arms over their head.  Shirts are to remain tucked in at all times.

SKIRTS/DRESSES/JUMPERS:  They must touch the floor when the girl kneels and no slit skirts above the knees are allowed.  Clothing made of spandex or stretch material is not allowed.

SHORTS:  The students may wear "uniform style" walking shorts.  All solid colors are acceptable, except blue denim material.  Shorts must touch the ground when students are in the kneeling position.
 
CHAPEL DRESS:

Chapel is held on Thursdays at 8:30 AM. 

Boys are required to wear dress shirts (that button down the front), mock or regular turtlenecks, or sweaters or sweater vests with a collared shirt/turtleneck underneath.  Neckties are not required but are acceptable.  Dress pants are to be worn and may be tan, navy, black or gray.  Dressy, casual or tennis shoes are allowed.

Girls are required to wear a dress, skirt or jumper.  Dress shoes or tennis shoes are allowed.  Dresses must touch the floor when the girls are in the kneeling position.  Slits in the dresses/skirts may not be above the knee.  When the temperature is 32 degrees or below, girls may wear appropriate slacks/pants.

OTHER RESTRICTIONS:

Hats, sun visors, and sunglasses are not to be worn in the building.
No backless shoes are allowed for safety reasons.
No body piercing is allowed except in the earlobes for females.
Chains or other alternative accessories are not permitted.

On occasion, there will be DRESS DOWN DAYS as determined by the principal.  Just a reminder, students are not to wear clothing with slogans that would contradict our Christian emphasis.  No rock groups, liquor, cigarettes, characters of a violent nature, etc will be allowed.

They will soar on wings like eagles... Isaiah 40:31
