Quote #3
The dress code states that "teachers may impose more stringent dress requirements to accommodate the special needs of certain ... classes." That language is vague and violates student's rights to engage in protected speech and expression.
The dress code states that hats, caps and other head coverings are banned in junior high/middle schools. There is no specific, written exception to protect the rights of students who wear caps or other head coverings because of their religious beliefs, such as Jewish boys and Muslim and Hindu girls, or students who must wear such items for medical or health reasons.
The dress code is still unreasonable because it bans many items, designs and styles of clothing which are not a health or safety hazard and cannot reasonably be shown to cause a substantial disruption of school activities.
Quote #3In the passage of Students Rights the author talks about how Students that need to wear a hat or head covering because their religion are allowed. Also if you have a medical excuse you can also wear it too. The dress code had yet not been reasonable because most of the iteams are banned from the schools. Teachers are allowed to tell a student there are not following student dresscode.
