UNIFORM
POLICY:
2008-2009 School Year
We believe
it is the parents’ responsibility to ensure the proper attire of
their children. The following uniform standards have been established
for Brockton Christian School students. Homeroom teachers are given the
primary responsibility for recognizing uniform policy violations. However,
other staff members are at liberty to speak to a student if the student
is out of uniform at any time during the day. The uniform policy applies
at all times on school property and on all field trips unless otherwise
specified by the teacher.

All changes will be made in writing to the parents before the program.
All clothing must be modest in length and coverage (no low cut, short

At
various times during the year, BCS may sponsor a dress down day, for a celebration,

Consequences:
If a student comes to school out of uniform, parents will be notified. On the first offense, parents will be notified in writing. The second time, students will wait in the office for parents to bring the appropriate uniform clothing to school. If a parent cannot be contacted, the student will work in office detention for the day. If the problem persists, the parent/guardian and student will be required to meet with the Principal to deal with the problem and formulate a solution. Determination of uniform policy violations is at the discretion of the BCS staff.
