uniform information
Uniform Policy:
The Wilmington Christian Academy dress code seeks to achieve a relaxed but neat appearance for our students to free them from fashion trends and peer pressure. Dress code infractions will result in a policy reminder for K-12 students for first offense. If infractions continue, the teacher will make a phone call home to discuss with the parent. After a parent/teacher phone call, if the infractions continue, the student will not be permitted to return to school until proper uniform attire is worn. Office staff MAY call home if the attire needs changed immediately. A parent may be asked to bring approved clothing to the Academy’s office. Proper attire is required before a student may rejoin his/her class. Teachers are responsible to enforce the WCA dress code through the school’s disciplinary procedures.
