Im all for a dress code. But, it should be about appropriate clothes for school. If its against the code, it should all be against the code equally. It was just very uncomfortable and felt like the girls and sexuality were really be emphasized and punished in an inequitable manner.[/quote]

OP, I agree with you completely, but I think that we are in the minority, unfortunately. What's more, dress code enforcement for girls tends to be body enforcement.

Here is my idea of a school dress code:

1. You must wear street clothes. No swim suits or pajamas.
2. Clothes should be clean and hole-less.
3. Underwear should be covered.
4. Writing on clothes should not be offensive.

Op here. That's pretty much the dress code with the exception that you have to have sleeves and no writing or pictures at all. I'm guessing they don't want to be in the business of deciding what's appropriate or not. [/quote]

That's the dress code, and yet the administration talks about the tightness/shortness of girls' clothing and the uncomfortableness of teachers? They're really setting themselves up. [/quote]
