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.

Amen!
Its unfortunate parents will blame the school system, and guess who bought the clothes. Parents know what's appropriate.

I wish i could agree. But on any give day you can ask a parent and some of them really believe what their child is wearing is fine. But take a look at the parent. Is there any real wonder why they feel that way??

Yes I have a teenager and don't need the school to set the rules for dress.
People that need the school to do things like that have failed or are failing as a parents.

Very true, which is exactly why the school needs to have the dress code. There are many parents that aren't holding up their end of the responsibility. You can't force them to raise their kids differently, thus you need the rules.

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
