COVER UP!

So I decided, that because 2015 is coming to an end, we should indulge ourselves in the greatest struggle that every student has faced this year: the dreaded dress code.

Many schools claim to reduce "distractions" by creating dress codes, restricting the "obscene-messaged graphic tees" and "too sexy shoulder feat. straps" situation. But in recent years, dress code scandals have reached an all-time high. Everyday, girls are suspended or sent home for their outfits-- keep in mind I said girls, not boys. But lucky for you, out of the dozen scandals that have occurred this year, the 10 most shocking cases were rounded up.

*P.S. they are in chronological order*

1. Cameron Boland lost her National Honor Society title for wearing spaghetti straps during a speech. 

2. Evette Reay was suspended for wearing a dress that hit mid-thigh on her FINAL day of high school. 

3. Dozens of girls were sent home for dress code violations on a 90-degree day.

4. Stephanie Hughes was sent home for exposing her collarbone. 

5. Miranda Larkin was forced to change into a "shame suit" for wearing an almost knee-length skirt. 

6. 8-year-old Kylie was suspended for wearing the wrong shade of green. 

7. Tessa Wisloh was sent home for wearing a sleeveless top under a jacket.

8. Coeur d'Alene High School banned spaghetti straps & strapless dresses 2 days before homecoming. 

9. 40 girls were sent home for wearing leggings without a dress, skirt, or shorts on top. 

10. A girl was humiliated and sent to the principle for her natural hair. 

My dear pal Mary Callahan posted this in her school and she went viral, but was threatened not being able to graduate if she came out that she created this. 

So I guess everyone has problems and I am thankful for our lenient dress code but man, some people push their luck using authority... So this is me for the rest of the year.
