Dress Code Guidelines

What students wear depends on the day. Seniors get extra flexibility.

• Monday–Thursday: Logoed polos, hoodies, crewnecks, or zip-up sweatshirts are required.
• Friday: Students may wear any top (polo, spirit shirt, logo’d shirt, etc.) that represents Gilbert Christian Schools, as long as it meets school appropriate and modesty standards (no crop tops, etc.).
• Seniors only may wear GCHS T-shirts or polos from an officially recognized GCHS extra-curricular organization, club, or spirit shirt any day of the week.

Uniform tops are available for purchase at gcsaz.org/uniforms .

• All tops must be in good repair.
• All tops must have sleeves (no tank tops or sleeveless shirts).
• Tops may not be altered, cut or manipulated from their original design.
• All tops must have a professionally attached GCS logo, be a solid color, and contain no large company logos.
• If a school sport or club has an approved top from a sanctioned school event, they may wear it in place of the GCS top on designated days or Spirit Fridays.
• No cleavage or midriff can be visible at any time.
• Clothing should not be excessively tight fitting.

• Full-zip hoodies must have a visible, professionally attached GCS logo. A polo shirt underneath is required.
• Quarter-zip hoodies and crewnecks must have a visible, professionally attached GCS logo. A polo shirt underneath is no longer required.
• The only non-GCS logo item permitted is a winter coat. A winter coat may only be worn when outside.

The fit and style of pants and shorts must be modest and school appropriate. Boys and girls must wear pants at or near the waist, and a belt may be required if pants slip too low.

• All bottoms must be in good repair. No holes or rips are permitted.
• All bottoms must be a solid color with no pattern. Permitted solid colors are jeans, navy, black, gray, green, brown and khaki (beige).
• White or light-colored jeans are allowed, as long as undergarments are not visible through them.
• Jogger-style pants are permitted, as long as they are not sweatpants or overly tight.
• Underwear, compression shorts, etc. should not be visible above the waist line or below the cuff line of shorts, when standing or sitting.
• Short length should hit at least the middle of the thigh (midpoint between bottom of buttocks and top of knee cap). The hemline should be closer to the knee than to the bottom of the buttocks.
• Raw hems are permitted on pants, but must have minimal frays. Raw hems are not permitted on shorts.
• All bottoms should be loose fitting. Bottoms that are thin or skin tight (including leggings, spandex, or yoga pants) are not modest and therefore not school-appropriate.
