Dress Code

All students at CKCS are required to adhere to the dress code. A firm dress code teaches students to dress appropriately and to take pride in their appearance. It enables students to create an identity for their school in the community, and a sense of belonging, and lessens the pressure on students to keep up with fashion trends. An established dress code is known to reduce distraction, and sharpen focus on schoolwork, which allows students to perform better academically.

 

CKCS students are encouraged to express themselves academically, socially, spiritually, and emotionally. Self-expression should not be with superficial clothing, but through a student’s words, actions, and how they interact with others.

 

Students are expected to comply with dress code during the school day.
