We believe that students should focus their energy and attention upon their academic development and not on style or the clothes of their peers.  Dress code is important to school safety since students are often outside of the school facility and students in uniform are easily recognized to all school community members.  The LCCS dress code is simple:

All other clothing items are to be made of plain material and are not to have any words or decorations other than school logo.

• The uniform must be worn throughout the school day  - Student MAY NOT wear other clothing over their uniform.
• Students are to enter and leave the school in uniform
• Changing clothes at school, unless for a school sponsored activity, is not allowed
• No sweat pants.  No head wear of any kind, including hats (unless outside for sun protection), headbands, and handkerchiefs for both genders. 

Uniforms must be kept neat and clean at all times and must fit appropriately. Specific suggestions are listed below:

• Pants must be appropriate size
• Skirts and shorts must not be shorter than four inches above the knee.
• Pants must be worn at the waist – No Sagging
• Shirts must fit appropriately--neither too small or too big

Parents will receive an “Out of Uniform” notice if a child does not adhere to the uniform policy.  The notice should be returned to the school with the parent’s signature. On the third “Out of Uniform” notice in one school year, a School representative will initiate a telephone conference with the parent.  The goal of the conference will be to problem-solve the family’s issue of complying with the uniform policy.  If parents find abiding by the LCCS dress code is financially difficult, financial aid is available. Please contact a School Director if you need more information about dress code financial aid.
