School Dress Code
The goal of the dress code of Beaufort Christian School is to teach and practice modesty. Our desire is to have a positive testimony to our community and for the Lord. Because of this and other reasons, it is absolutely imperative that the faculty and students associated with Beaufort Christian School be above reproach in this matter of outward appearance.
Parents, please check to see that your child is dressed appropriately each day. Worn or stained uniforms are to be replaced. The administration reserves the right to determine what is acceptable or unacceptable dress.
