Dress Code Policy
Redeemer Classical School is committed to the use of uniforms for its student. The basic purpose of school uniforms is to promote good, honest learning without distractions
Uniforms support the primacy of excellence in academics without compromising beauty. Our Uniform Policy is founded on a desire to cultivate a professional culture that is neat, orderly, and honors God in our attire.
Our uniform policy is based on the following principles:
Honors God in all we do, acknowledging the Lordship of Jesus Christ in our choices.
Places an emphasis on learning, not clothing
Allows for cohesive presentation as a group
Creates a more work-like atmosphere
Reduces peer pressure and social stigmas
Promotes a positive image of the school
Ensures students are safely dressed for activities
Facilitates security by identifying outsiders
Communicates cohesiveness between students and that they are part of the same team, striving for excellence in all they do.
Enhances school spirit
