Dress Code, Legacy High School
Please note dress code changes for the 18-19 school year: (for a downloadable "cheat sheet" please click here)
The Bible commands the Christian to “do all to the glory of God” (I Corinthians 10:31). In today’s society, this command has special reference to the fact that God may be honored or dishonored by our personal dress and grooming. In dress, as well as doctrine,, the Christian is to “test all things, hold fast to what is good, abstain from every form of evil” (I Thessalonians 5:21- 22). The Christian is to have a regard for things that are “pure...of good report...of virtue...and praise” (Philippians 4:8).
WCA has chosen to follow and create an atmosphere to encourage the high Christian standards of conduct and appearance. WCA believes that these commands have a practical application to the students’ dress and grooming. Outward appearance is a significant way in which we reflect our inward character. WCA has always been in favor of tasteful, contemporary dress.
In all areas of appearance pertaining to clothes, hair styles, and makeup, students should look neat, natural, with emphasis on cleanliness and modesty. For these reasons, WCA students will wear approved uniforms While not exhaustive, the following guidelines are intended to provide guidance for appropriate attire to all at school and school-sponsored functions.
If a student arrives at school dressed in violation of this dress code, or a student outgrows his/her approved uniform, making it too short or tight, the student’s parent(s) will be called to bring a change of clothes for the student to change into.
Students at Legacy High School are required to adhere to designated uniform specifications. Required Uniform, including, shirt with Legacy logo, pants, skirt, and sweaters, all must be purchased from one of our vendors (Land's End or Educational Outfitters) to maintain a strict congruity with dress code.
