Dear Mrs. Chinn,
Hello, my name is Kylee H and I have a problem with my school BCS.
Sometimes kids at my school get dress-coded for no reason at all. In the spring and summertime girls wear shorts and tank tops and most of the time they get dress-coded even when they're following the guidelines. One time somebody I know got dress-coded by a teacher for wearing a tank top that was three fingers thick and if girls wear spaghetti straps they get dress-coded but if they wear a three finger thick tank top they are fine. She got dress-coded for "showing her shoulders" and had to wear borrowed clothes.(March 17, 2014)
Dress coding someone should not be ok if it is not needed but if its needed like when you can see underwear you can do it but it does not have a purpose don't do it. It would make kids much more happy because they would not have to worry about getting in trouble everyday for wearing what they wear.

Dress coding is sexist because the girls dress code is decided by how boys feel. 

Because we interviewed Riley cook  and he said:  he doesnt feel un comfortable but he says its not consittered "slutty" if you showed your shoulders

Ryan herster says: that the shorts legth shouldnt differ on there arm spans because if you have longer arms you have to wear longer shorts. 

 Cory gluckman said : I think that girls should ge able to wear whatever they wont cause its comfortable 

Fiona Moore said: I think it is stupid because I think we should wear what we want. 

People wear what they wear to express themselves like jean shorts they are happy they could be short but it expresses their feelings and it makes them happy. As long as they are not short shorts I am ok withany type of summer wear. If the shorts are as short as your underwear that is not ok. 

Sincerely,
Kylee H
