Dress Code

Liberty students are expected to dress in a modest, neat, and attractive manner that reflects pride in themselves and their school. All clothing must be clean, in good repair, and free of holes, rips, tears, or frayed edges. The dress code is designed to create an environment conducive to learning. It is the responsibility of both the student and parent to ensure daily compliance with the dress code.
