The Manchester, New Hampshire school committee voted 11-1 Saturday to enact a strict new dress code for that bans 15 clothing items. Anyone who violates the dress could face disciplinary action.
School dress codes aren’t that unusual, you might say. So why have we bothered telling you about this one? Because the code is aimed at teachers, not students.
Here are the articles of clothing that have been banned:
- Jeans
- T-shirts that have writing, pictures or are considered underwear
- Tank tops
- Shorts
- Sweats, wind suits and gym clothes
- Spandex
- Flip-flops
- Sneakers
- Tops that are low-cut, cropped, tube or have spaghetti straps
- Sheer clothing
- Short skirts that are more than 2 inches above the knee
- Skirts with front slits more than 2 inches above the knee
- Clothes with holes
- Pajamas
- Facial piercings
We can only assume that those dedicated teachers who wore pajamas to school were simply attempting to bring efficiency to the act of sleeping with their students.
