The decision to ban skirts for girls isn’t just about uniforms, it reflects a deeper double standard. While boys are free to sag their pants or bend dress code rules without the same scrutiny, girls are being singled out and restricted. This sends the message that our clothing is inherently inappropriate or distracting, which shifts the blame onto us instead of holding everyone to the same expectation of respect. In a Catholic school that preaches dignity, equality, and moral responsibility, it feels hypocritical to enforce a rule that disproportionately limits girls’ expression while overlooking the same behavior in boys. Do better O’dowd.

It’s inconvenient for students who have already bought expensive backpacks that are gonna go to no use, it’s a violation of privacy for female students who need personal hygiene products. Someone who really wants to bring a gun is gonna bring it one way or another the clear backpacks aren’t gonna stop anything, the parents who have already bought expensive backpacks have to go and spend even more money on a clear backpack, is ECISD gonna refund all that money to all these parents? no.
Arianna supported: Clear Backpacks Won’t Protect Us—ECISD Needs Real Change
Us having to wear a clear backpack is difficult. For girls especially since we have sanitary items that we need EVERY MONTH. If we cant even have pouches in our bag to hide our sanitary items then how are we supposed to hide them. We don’t want guys to be seeing that like are we serious. Having backpacks with designs and covers are better because we are allowed our privacy that WE AS MINORS are entitled too.
