BSBA Dress Code
Bell Shoals Baptist Academy has chosen to implement a dress code for our students that aligns with our
Christian standards. Desiring to honor the Lord in all we do, we will not allow clothing or styles to
attract undue attention to the outward appearance.
Early Learning Center:
Our little Panthers are not required to wear uniforms. Their only requirement is to wear close-toed
shoes that are safe. Tennis shoes are great! A BSBA school bag and matching field trip T-shirt will be
provided for our little Panthers.
JrK-8th grades:

Only BSBA logo shirts are acceptable and must be purchased from our 3 uniform suppliers.
Shirts may be white, grey, green, red, and navy. Unless shirts are styled to be worn out, they
should be neatly tucked in.
All uniform bottoms must be UNIFORM STYLE in the colors of navy blue, traditional khaki, or the
designated BSBA plaid. All bottoms must be appropriately fitted. For girls, jumper, skirt and
skort lengths should not be shorter than four inches from the crease of the back of the knee.
Shorts length should not be shorter than six inches from the floor when kneeling.
Belts must be worn when wearing apparel with loops. Traditional-type belts in uniform colors
should be worn.
While in the classroom, students may wear SOLID color jackets or sweaters in the uniform
colors. Brand names and advertisements on apparel are not allowed in the classrooms.
During cold weather, long-sleeved uniform colored shirts may be worn under the BSBA logo
shirts.
Comfortable and safe shoes are best. No boots, sandals, crocs, heelies, or dance shoes.
Hair must be neatly styled in natural colors. Boys’ hair must be above the eyebrows and collar.
No unusual styles, highlights, feathers, scarves, hoodies or hats should be worn.
PLEASE LABEL all apparel and items brought to school. We are not responsible for lost clothing,
lunch boxes, water bottles, etc. but we will be glad to return labeled items to their owner.
Complete dress code guidelines may be found in the BSBA Family handbook which is located on
RenWeb and in the student planners.
PE Uniforms for middle school and Spirit Shirt information will be available at Open House.
