All boys must have their hair cut in accordance with the following guidelines: 

• Hair must be trimmed above the shirt collar and above (not touching) the ears. 
• Hair must be cut above (not touching) the eyebrows. 
• No fad haircuts are allowed; this includes spiking or dyeing of any kind; the hair must be tapered.

Should a dress code violation occur in grades 7-12, a conference will be held with the student with the expectation that the violation will be corrected the next day. If no correction is made, a letter will be sent to the parents. Any continuing disregard for the dress code will be considered an act of direct disobedience and will result in demerits being assessed according to the discipline code.

Should dress code violations occur in grades K5-6, teachers will counsel with the children; a note may be sent home with the student if the correction is not made in a reasonable length of time.

Boys and Girls (General):

• On certain special occasions students will be allowed to wear Sunday dress that conforms to the school dress code. 
• A student whose dress is deemed immodest will be required to go home and change or to have suitable clothing brought from home. The student will not be allowed to attend class while waiting to change. 
• No faddish haircuts will be permitted. 
• Although girls may have pierced ears, no tattoos or body piercing is allowed for students of either gender. 
• FCA Administration may approve certain “school spirit” sweatshirts to be worn by students in classes on Fridays.  These sweatshirts may not be worn to class on any other day.
• Uniforms must be worn to and from school; the only exceptions will be announced or must be approved by the administration. 
• Because of our commitment to keep our students from the evil in the world, they may not wear sweatshirts, hats, or other clothing with vulgar, worldly associations to any school activity, including field trips, athletic contests, and the senior trip. Because of the unusual degree of antagonism Abercrombie & Fitch and its subsidiary Hollister have demonstrated toward the name of Christ and because of their displays of wickedness in their advertisements, we cannot allow articles displaying their logos at FCA. 
• All elementary and secondary students attending evening school activities are expected to wear clothes that comply with the school dress code. Girls may not wear pants to any evening activity except for sports events.
• Elementary and secondary spectators to athletic contests may not wear jeans or shorts. (Girls are permitted to wear loose fitting, modest pants.) They may wear their school uniform or may wear another loose-fitting polo shirt or sweatshirt that does not contain any objectionable writing or symbols, but may not wear any type of T-shirts. The neckline for shirts should be no lower than four fingers width below the collarbone. Students whose dress does not meet spectator dress code will be asked to change back into their school uniforms.
