[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with the school in this case that her hair is a distraction.

OP did you take your DNA test yet?[/quote]

OP here. I have indeed. Have you taken yours? My mom is African American and my dad is Italian and per the DNA test we have Native American in our lineage as well. I don't see what my ancestry has to do with me being in agreement with the school though that her hair is a distraction though. [/quote]

See pp 20.22. And congrats on your good hair.[/quote]

Op here. My hair actually looks very similar to girl's hair. I too went to a private Christian school where we had dress code rules including rules about how our hair could be styled. I complied. I read the student handbook and code of conduct and knew what was expected of me. I still got questions about my hair... "why do you put grease in your hair?" "Why do you wash it only once a week? However I didnt feel the need to break the dress code rules thereby drawing negative attention to myself. The rules indicated that my hair needed to be pulled back so thats what I did.[/quote]
