First off, I don't know if this belongs in SYD or if it belongs anywhere else, or if this is even worth discussing.
Anyway, my school is enforcing a new dress code come tomorrow morning. It is apparently 'gang related' if I wear all one color to school now. Wearing band shirts, having piercings, gloves, pants with chains sewed permanently into them, loose fit pants, shorter skirts on girls, almost anything you wear in a normal life is unacceptable now. A lot of my school is going to walk out tomorrow morning.
I smell a revolution on the rise. A lot of the students at Dayton High School aren't going to let this stand. I'm one of them. I'm going to be wearing my HIM shirt tomorrow morning, and if they got a problem with it then they have some serious issues. There aren't any gangs out here in the middle of Nevada. And they know this.
They're even going to lengths to have a dress code check every month supposedly, where my vice-principal comes up on the intercom and says "Teachers tell your students to stand up it's dress code check time."
Oh, did I forget to mention having a jacket or sweater with a hood is gang related too? Well it is now. So that means when it's 15°F out I have to freeze my ass off because I don't have a jacket without a hood on it. This also means when it rains or snows heavily I get to have my hair soaked with precipitation. But that's not going to happen because I'm gonna wear my jackets whether they give a rat's ass or not.
What can I say. This isn't the rest of the administration's fault, this is the doing of my new principal. Since he comes from Las Vegas where gangs run rampant, he apparently can't figure out the Dayton community is a relatively peaceful place.
Any thoughts or comments on this?
