Citrus Hill High School's School District should remove the dress code!

From elementary school to high school, a dress code is always enforced, dictating students on how to dress. Well, I say that schools have no right to tell students on what they can’t and can wear. School dress codes should be abolished and students should have the freedom to wear whatever they want to.

California is known for its hot, hot temperatures. How are we expected to keep from overheating in long sleeves and jeans in 90 degrees temperatures? Girls aren’t allowed to wear tank tops, shirts that show cleavage, or shorts and skirts that are “too short.”

Boys are also prohibited from wearing tank tops. Teachers call out girls for wearing tank tops or shorts by saying they’re too distracting, but here are my questions: Who are they distracting? And how are they distracting? It’s not like there’s a giant red arrow pointing at the girls’ shirts or tank tops. I highly doubt that any boys are going to find collar bones or shoulders distracting. If they do, girls shouldn’t be responsible for that, it’s not on them to control the boys. They should be able to control themselves.

Please help join us in removing the dress code! Thank You!
