School is not a popularity contest, nor is it a beauty pageant or a fashion show. But students in schools often feel like it is. Dress and appearance cause many distractions for adolescents, young and old. To help students focus on learning and improving one’s character rather than appearance, students at New Day Academy are required to adhere to a dress code. All students must come to school every day wearing the school dress code.
