Nazareth Academy Catholic School Dress Code
Uniform and Personal Appearance Modesty Statement
Modesty Statement
Nazareth Academy supports a school uniform policy that is helpful towards implementing the school’s mission as well as eliminating distractions from it. Modesty, humility, selflessness, and discretion are all virtues modeled by Jesus Christ. The school uniform is one potential tool to help students not only express these principles through their personal appearance but also, and more importantly, seal them in their hearts so that they rejoice in modesty, humility, selflessness, and discretion. In regards to individuality, the more important expressions of a person’s heart are to be found in their speech, their acts of love and kindness, and their academic and artistic abilities rather than what they wear.
A neat and well-groomed appearance is expected of every Nazareth Academy student. Uniforms must be sized appropriately, clean, and shirts tucked in at all times.
