It is expected that modesty, cleanliness, appropriateness, and Christian testimony will guide dress for all occasions at James Island Christian School. One’s appearance should glorify the Lord. Each student is to conduct oneself in accordance within his/her God created gender as stated on the state certified birth certificate by dressing in conformance with one’s biological sex.
Special Occasions: On special occasions the administration may allow students to deviate from the dress code. On these days dress must be modest, in good repair, and within the guidelines provided for that specific day.
Spirit Fridays: Beginning in September • 1st Friday of each Month is themed dress up day – you may either participate in the theme or wear uniform • All other Fridays – you may wear the JICS t-shirt in lieu of a uniform shirt.
- Appearance shall be neat, clean, and modest – not drawing attention to self.
- Clothes shall be in good repair and of appropriate size.
- Hair shall be neat, clean, and well groomed.
- a. Boys: Hair shall be above the top of the collar of a dress shirt, and bangs cut above the eyebrow. Hair coloring is not acceptable. Young men should be clean-shaven.
- b. Girls: Hair should not obstruct student’s vision. Hair coloring shall not be dramatically different from natural color. Shaved or partly shaved heads are not acceptable.
- Non-JICS outerwear is not to be worn or carried during the school day but must remain in lockers or on hooks (exception: outdoor recess).
