[quote=Anonymous]Yesterday, my child wore high waisted jeans, boots, a neck high t-shirt that was not touching the top of the pants waist  with a flannel over it (picture attached).  A teacher stopped her in the hall---DID NOT DRESS CODE her but began her loud conversation with a loud " what boy at our school are your wearing that for?"  My child replied, "excuse me, I chose the outfit for myself because I like it and it's fashionable."  and then she tells her to " button your flannel up and I better not see that again, it's so inappropriate you wanting your teachers to see you like that".....

The teacher did not dress code her ----and I bet it is because if she had the office would have said it was fine----she wore it many times before and had never been questions or even commented on.

I'm still fuming about this!  My daughter said the way she said it was as though she was implying she was dressed slutty.  If the teacher had simply dress coded her I wouldn't be writing this, it is the comments.   Should I peruse this further and with whom?

Really wish I could submit a picture of the outfit and shirt-----even her English teacher made a comment that the outfit was very modest, and thought she was picking her out because she is tall and the outfit did look very fashionable (this is a 60 year old lady)[/quote]
