Please help : public school laws

I think dreads are a crime against nature.

 

Oh sigh, people will probably flip shit, I was kidding.

But it is true, almost all dreads I have seen look like shit. Unless you are one of the rare ones who have half way looking dreads, it isn't even worth it to fight. and I doubt you are one of the ones that have half way decent dreads. Generally/naturally, dreads do not = healthy hair.

 

It's school, you are there to get an education.
Most schools have a dress code, so if you decide to go outside of that, you are asking for trouble.

It is just hair, for goodness sake.

 

have your friend take this issue as high/as far as he/she can take it. spin it so it looks negative on the school district. see what happens then.

 

Take it where? There is no issue, she signed her handbook agreement, she's bound by contract. No judge would hear this case.

 

who said judge...i didn't. your missing the point.

 

you're missing the apostrophe...

 

and the e.

thanks.

 

It is just hair.... exactly... so why should it be regulated? It's not like they are saying you can't have a certain length of shorts on or anything like that, they are regulating a piece of your body... and carlfloydfan, I don't have dreads but thanks for the insult, you're a winner... everyone here knows now.

 

Look at John Butler and the drummer from ShineDown, both white, both have the sickest dreads ever... anyways... schools lol wtf

 

When you enroll, or enroll your child into a school you are agreeing to abide by their dress code- many schools dress code include rules about hair styles- which would mean dreads ,or "unnatural colors", oor even length or cut . If that was in her school dress code and she agreed to those rules, then they have every right to "regulate that" and she has no case against them.

 

right, I agree with what you just said hippie... what I'm trying to get at is WHY hair would be included in a dress code to begin with. Everyone shut the fuck up about the hand book, lol, we have established that there is no case against the school or the district.

seafort you're muted

 

I've seen some pretty dumb rules in dress codes before.
A rule about dreads is one of the least strict.Why do they have those rules? Its the schools choice to do what they think is in the best interest of the education of the children, you don't like it you are free to take your child to another school, with a different dress code.

 

Yeah, I know our school doesn't allow students to have pink hair, and people have gotten thrown from dances for it.

I don't really think there's much you can have your friend do, other than please rastafarian, or go to the school board and try and convince them that the hair isn't a problem.

 

not sure who butler is, but the drummer from shinedown could be the best looking guy in the world and he's still a complete douche for subjecting us to that shitty shitty music.

 

She already took em out so there really is no issue anymore, I was just curious what people thought. Dude i just woke up and your sig is totally fucking with my eyes.

 

Oh. Yeah. If it were me, I'd put up a huge deal. But I'm stubborn and annoying.

Ha. Sorry about the sig. That's kinda what I put it there for

 

It's just a dress code. Dreads on people who have naturally straight hair are just gross because of the damage they have to do to make it dread.
Claiming to be Rastafarian just to keep a hairstyle you wear for fashion is insulting to Rastafarians.

This is the sound of me not caring.

 

I agree with this

 

Who's it hurting? What difference is it going to make to them if some teenage kid claims to be rasta to keep his hair? He's not saying anything bad about rastas that will negatively affect their lifestyle, their culture, or their own spirituality...:toetap05:

 

I guess "insulting" is the wrong word, I wouldn't do it though. I really don't know much about the Rastafarians to be honest.
