Down with Florence City Schools Dress Code

...From http://www.freewebs.com/dresscodesolutions
At the end of the 2004 school year our school, Florence High school began talking about a uniformed dress code. This dress code was argued and argued until some people agreed to post a proposed dress code for two weeks after that they would vote on whether or not to put the dress code into effect. Everyone mailed the school board and voiced their complaints. I even did a survey, but the board didn't make very many changes. When the day came for the school board to vote on this dress code every one went to the meeting. We were all there and during the meeting i raised my hand and said that i had something to say. What i said was good but i did not say it well. I stuttered and paused many times to think of what to say. I got through it and then many other students and parents spoke. Then, the time came for the big vote, and the school board voted not to pass the dress code. It was awesome. The meeting continued and about ten minutes later a member of the school board brought it back up by saying, "About that dress code, I would have voted for it if the students would be allowed to wear flip flops." Then, they talked about and after some debate they removed flip-flops, voted again, and it passed. To me this seemed pretty unlawful. So Immediately we began fighting it. Thats pretty much where we are now.

The current dress code is embarrassing, degrading, and humiliating to most students, especially the children who are overweight. I would like to know if anyone on the school board has taken any child psychology classes lately. I think it should be a requi

This is America, and kids should have a right to dress how they want as long as it's not indecent.
