This high school girl’s revealing clothing got her in trouble over dress code violation - TomoNews

VERSAILLES, KENTUCKY — A Kentucky high school’s strict dress code has made headlines for the second time in a year after student, Stephanie Hughes, was sent home for exposing her female anatomy. Specifically, her ... gasp ... collar bone! No sooner had the school year started, than Stephanie Hughes was sent home, on the second day of class. Her shirt violated Woodford High School’s Victorian dress code, which requires students to wear crewnecks at all times. Stephanie wasn’t alone. Six girls got stitched up in the principal’s office for showing too much bone. Girls think the school is hiding their bodies out of fear a stray clavicle might give the boys an excuse to cut loose. Stephanie’s mom, Stacy Dunn, tried keep Steph in school school and brought a scarf to cover up the teen’s “shame zone.” But that was still too revealing for Principal Rob Akers, and when Stephanie protested, she got sent home for her Kentucky blue “sass.” Stacy Dunn was determined to liberate her daughter’s collars and set about perfecting a new dress code for the school. She proposed skirts be allowed 2 inches above the knee, and shirts are OK if they don’t show cleavage. A compromise everyone can get excited about. Now the proposal is before the school board, and if they don’t want Woodford High to be the subject of anymore satirical animations, we suggest they bring the dress code at least into the 20th century.
