Veritas Christian Academy Dress Code At Veritas we recognize wearing uniforms enhances school pride, unity and community spirit, all while creating a level playing field among students, reducing peer pressure and bullying. We expect that all students, with the support of their family, will adhere to the dress code. Many stores now provide school uniform clothing, and it is the responsibility of the parent/ guardian to ensure all clothing worn to school meets the dress code. Here are a few suggestions of where you can buy dress code and uniform clothing: Lands End: Chapel Uniforms French Toast: Chapel Uniforms Gap/ Old Navy The Children s Place Target Khols Primary.com JC Penney We recognize that God designed each child uniquely and clothing fits each student differently. Through our dress code policy, we strive to promote modesty, not legalism. Your support is most needed and appreciated as students will be held firmly to dress code standards. We would be happy to answer any further questions about our dress code. Please contact the office as needed. Sincerely, Veritas Christian Academy PS. Information on how to purchase Veritas sweatshirts and other Veritas Spirit Wear will be provided in future e-newsletters, so stay tuned!
