At Lake Catholic High School, students are asked to participate in a structured dress and personal appearance code. This code is designed to promote school identity and to respect the individual dignity and uniqueness of each person. The dress and personal appearance code stress uniformity and personal modesty in school attire appropriate to learning.

When a student enrolls at Lake Catholic High School, there is an awareness and understanding that individual dress has specific restrictions, and that violation or misinterpretation of the uniform will result in disciplinary action, which may include referrals or exclusion from classes. The uniform is officially enforced during school hours while a student is in the building. Parents and the Lake Catholic Community are in partnership in enforcing the “Code for the Personal Appearance of Students.” Parents have a responsibility to check their child’s appearance before they leave home.

At all school functions on and off campus, students are representing Lake Catholic High School. 

The following regulations on dress and personal appearance are created to help motivate a student to develop habits of neatness, order, cleanliness, and appropriate dress for a variety of occasions. Deviation in dress, hairstyle, or appearance violates this personal appearance and dress code. Students must be in compliance with the dress code at all times.

Students are permitted to wear mass dress code any day of the year.

IN ALL MATTERS REGARDING THE CODE FOR THE PERSONAL APPEARANCE OF STUDENTS, THE ADMINISTRATION HAS THE FINAL DECISION REGARDING PERSONAL APPEARANCE CODE VIOLATIONS 

*APPROPRIATE CLOTHING: (These standards apply to normal school day dress-up or dress-down days.) Students are not permitted to wear any clothing containing advertisements or references to any tobacco, drug, or alcohol product. No clothing article may contain any symbol, word, or phrase conveying a message or theme inconsistent with Lake Catholic High School community’s perception of the Gospel and traditions of the Catholic Church.

Students found out of dress code will receive a demerit. School-wide dress code checks will take place throughout the school year.
