[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS graduation ceremony that I recently attended had a teacher checking what kids were wearing when they got in line for the stage. Seemed to be checking for anything controversial, not ensuring only official cords. Some kids wore some display of heritage. About half the kids wore nothing. My kid was very proud of each one she wore, and definitely knew what they were and how she earned them.[/quote] When I had that role last year I was supposed to be making sure stoles and cords were even and not stuck in hair, I would never have removed something for a kid. The goal is just making sure they don't look disheveled in the photos! Presumably anything they are wearing has been approved by parents, so if that's how they want to remember the day then we let it go.[/quote] This is probably what most schools do. It is extremely obvious tht no one is checking whether kids have only the "approved" cords, stoles, and medals. [/quote]
