School Dress Code is Good for All There have been recent changes to some schools dress code. They are mandating modest dress and better clothing options for teens. Teens and youth need to have set guidelines for them; because they don’t know, or are influenced wrongly by the media. When warm weather hits our youth have a desire to keep cool and break from the warm winter wardrobe. It is important to value modesty in all situations. Whether the young person is attending school, packing for a vacation, or going to a dance or special event we are setting the pace with guidelines for parents and youth. Here are our suggestions for those guidelines: Girls: Shirts: (modest) No low cut necklines or halter tops without modest camisoles or proper undergarments. If the top is sleeveless the straps should be more than 1” wide and no bras or bra straps showing. When raising arms your stomach should not show. Belly shirts are not acceptable. Skirts: (modest) Skirts should not be shorter the 1” above the knee. Skirts should always be properly lined and be worn with a slip at the right length. Skirts should not be too sheer. Guys: Guys should not wear muscle or undershirts, no tanks with open armholes. No underwear hanging out or exposed from their pants. Girls & Guys: Only long shorts are acceptable following the 1” above the knee length (like the girl’s skirt length) Shorts should be modest and not too tight. This is appropriate attire for teens to prepare them for the professional and work world which will take them far.
