UNIFORM POLICY 2026-2027

UNIFORM GUIDELINES Logos Classical Academy (LCA) is committed to a uniform clothing policy for its students, recognizing that humans are both physical and spiritual beings made in the image of God. The way students dress is an expression of stewardship of their bodies and regard for others. Uniforms eliminate subjective standards of dress, ensure modesty, and allow the school to focus on academics instead of attire. Uniforms also: • Foster a disciplined learning environment.

• Encourage community spirit, where individuality is sacrificed for the good of the group.

• Set students apart from other schools, building a sense of unity similar to athletic or military teams.

• Potentially reduce clothing costs by providing durable, high-quality uniforms that can be reused or handed down.

What breaks the heart of our policy?

1 Corinthians 14:40 reminds us, “Let all things be done decently and in order.” In this spirit, our guidelines for personal appearance are intended to reflect a sense of respect, modesty, and unity within our school community. Some things that break the heart of our policy: Shaved heads, extreme hair colors or hair cuts, dramatic makeup, tattoos, body piercings, or hair that falls into eyes. For gentlemen specifically: having hair touching the collar, top knots or pony tails, sideburns below the ear lobe, ornamental hair cuts, or hair that covers the top half of the ear.

Hair Policy As we cultivate an identity rooted in Christ, we emphasize inward character over outward appearance, remembering 1 Samuel 16:7 - "Man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart." In a world that often blurs distinctions, we aim to reflect clarity and God-given design through neat and modest grooming and affirm God’s intentional design. The school reserves the right to address hairstyles that do not align with these guidelines in a spirit of grace and understanding.

• Hair must be clean, neatly groomed, and kept out of the eyes to ensure focus during learning and activities.

• Hairstyles should be simple and modest, avoiding extremes that draw unnecessary attention to the individual.

UNIFORM REQUIREMENTS Each LCA student is required to have three types of uniforms for specific days: • Casual Uniforms (Mondays and Fridays) • Dress Uniforms (Wednesdays) • Polo Uniforms (Tuesdays and Thursdays) Approved outer layers with the LCA logo may be worn indoors.
