Dress Code

The dress code at Harvest Christian Academy is based on the biblical principles of modesty, neatness, and appropriateness.

Modesty is mentioned often as an important character quality (1 Timothy 2:9; 1 Thess. 4:5, 6). Modest people don’t go out of their way to bring undue attention to themselves. Likewise, neatness and appropriateness are important as we seek to be ambassadors for Jesus Christ. We need to be examples for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith, in purity (1 Timothy 4:2). We also desire to give a good report and not be offensive in anything we do. This suggests living differently than the world (1 John 2:15). As we determine to glorify the Lord in all we do (1 Cor. 10:31), these qualities help us to do that in the area of dress.

It is also important to realize that parents, as the primary educators of their children (Deut. 6; Eph. 6), play a key role in this area of dress code. It is incumbent upon parents to guide and supervise their young people in the selection of appropriate clothing. Accordingly, this dress code is intended to make known in as clear a way as possible the position, guidelines, and restrictions of Harvest Christian Academy in the area of dress.
