DRESS CODE

CCAC desires to enhance its learning environment in positive ways. Research and experience demonstrate that a more formal dress standard has a positive impact on a student’s frame of mind. In light of these findings and with respect to the values of modesty and moderation, Campus Wear guidelines have been designed as a standard for our academic school setting.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES

1. Wherever and whenever CCAC Campus Wear is worn, it should be done so with an awareness of the responsibility to represent CCAC in a positive light.

2. All Campus Wear must be maintained in good repair and should be well-fitted, not oversized or too tight. Parents will be notified if any item is not being worn correctly or needs to be replaced.

3. All boy’s shirts must be tucked in at all times. T-shirts worn under the polo or oxford are to be plain (no printing) white.

4. Belts (brown or black, leather or leather-like) must be worn if a garment has belt loops.

5. Length of shorts, skirts, skorts, and jumpers will be three inches above the knee or longer. Jeans: No holes in jeans.

6. Extremes in jewelry and accessories are not permitted. Tattoos are not permitted. Items such as wristbands, multiple necklaces, bracelets, rope or heavy linked jewelry are informal and inappropriate for school wear. Girls: Only pierced ears are permitted. Boys, no pierced or pierced-look jewelry of any kind should be worn.

7. Hair regulations: Students’ hair should never become a distraction to the school performance of themselves or others. Hair should be clean, neatly combed, and of normal, natural color. Facial hair is to be neatly trimmed or shaven.

8. Head coverings may not be worn inside school buildings, this includes hats, caps, hoods, durags, etc…

9. Outerwear: students may wear any outerwear garment to school. During the school hours of 7:50 – 3:00, only the approved CCAC outerwear items are permitted to be worn.
