That's great but unfortunately 126 of those kids will have parents who take the kid's side and blame the school for persecuting their kids. Some might even pull the R card. They'll expend such enormous energy being angry with and blaming the school but never stop to think that maybe, just maybe, their kids should not be jaw jacking on their cellphone during school and they shouldn't dress like they're auditioning for a rap video at school. Rant off.

Baa our school never enforced the dress code, but I'd be the first to tell several female teachers they dressed like whores, I think cell phones should be allowed at school, everyone brought them anyways, I think some dress code is good but alot of schools take it to far

Remember schools are for education not offending attire which includes baggy pants, low-cut shirts, tank tops and graphic T-shirts and cell phone use, nose, rings, lip rings belly button rings dyed hair whatever.

The ability to acquire knowledge is well within the capabilities of our young people. However there are too many distractions that inhibit learning. Remove these distractions and what you get is an enviornment devoid of fashion and peer pressure compitition and some serious get down to business learning. Sure there are a lot of other issues that require attention but within the scope of the action taken in this school i hope they continue to drop the hammer big time and send these kids a message.

i wish more schools took notice. I remember i'd come into senior year of HS wearing a shirt and tie because i had work after school and kids would be looking at me like i fell from the sky. yes a kid walkin with his pants nearly off, boxers showing and barely walking because they are at his ankles and no one says a thing. but that shoudlnt only be for school. i go to the gym and some of the girls there are more of a distraction
