Parents need to be making these decisions, not schools.

when you place your children in the care of government schools you hand over that decision making control...you want it back? you take back your children. Those are your choices.

I have no problem with this. As long as the girls know well enough ahead of time what the rules are. 'Course my daughter had to follow the rules of a homeschool co-op...straps were required and the dress had to reach the knees (oh, the horrors! I'm sure her psyche is terribly damaged )

have you seen what those girls are wearing now? and if they spin!!! no way!!! my son isn't interested in going to the dances and it would be homeschool dances, but still....

I think requiring straps to keep the dress up and at least mid-thigh length is perfectly reasonable.
