Bethlehem Catholic High School Dress Code Policy
Introduction The purpose of the Bethlehem Catholic High School dress code is to take away the distractions that can be caused by allowing students to choose their own outfits for school. It is not intended or developed to remove the individuality of your son or daughter but to remove the competition about who has the most expensive, stylish, trendy or elaborate wardrobe. The Bethlehem Catholic High School uniform dress code promotes unity, community and a God-focused learning environment.
