Something tells me you've never worked in Elementary, especially lower Elem.

I read the new proposed policy as an educator and it seems fine. Really just no torn clothing, weapons, etc. They continue to include jeans in “business causal” so I have no qualms. I wonder if they are going after female educators who have been wearing tights / leggings to work. I know this is a controversial one, but I’ve never felt they look remotely professional (but the HS guys surely love them)


What's wrong with tights? Don't most people wear tights under skirts and dresses in the winter?

Or do you mean wearing tights as pants?


Yes, tights as pants. Looks amazing when the teachers right out of college do it (which is obviously horrendous for male attention, haha), but it seems that older, overweight woman often jump on the bandwagon too. I am wondering if this new dress policy is targeting them implicitly but not condoning them in the “approved dress” list. Would be hard to argue that only tights are business casual…

Do you have a lot of this at your school? I saw it years ago when LuLaRoe MLMs were all over and one staff member kept having parties. They were not young teachers wearing these. They were mostly older, out of shape women wearing loud prints. I say this as an older overweight woman who would never wear leggings to work.

Depends on how old is the teacher.

No one should be allowed to wear leggings to work unless they work at a gym or warehouse.

Teachers have a pretty laid-back dress code already.

OMG. Are they kidding with this? That's insane. No wonder teachers are leaving in droves if this is the type of stuff the SB is worried about.
