Ontario school board releases new dress code after students speak out against ‘outdated’ policy

What’s the need of this? This is dress code.. why should little girls dress like there going to a club at school?

Give me a break. Try getting a job dressed like that! Life has rules and they should start learning in schools & at home. Dress like that after school or weekends.

School should be an institution that paves the way for the workplace standards. Many people have lost jobs and been denied promotions because they just could not understand workplace etiquette.

Glad to hear this. It is out dated and targeted towards girls.

Why can't schools have uniforms? That would avoid all the confusion about dress code and also bring equality among kids in school - no comparison on what other kids are wearing..

They don’t have to cover the stomach or bra straps but have to wear a mask . This gets better and better . What a bunch of bull shit . We live in such a messed up world .

Why do student need to show their stomachs in school? I don’t agree with this at all

GEEZUS! Are these kids going to School or the Burlesque? A further erosion of Society's morals. Where is this complete lack of self-respect and personal responsibility going to end?

Unbelievable. You go to school to learn, not to show off your body or pick up boys. Students should still be respectfully dressed in a school environment. This new generation is getting out of hand. Sinning to no end. Pretty soon students will walk around naked.

Kids want to feel pretty and sexy, this comes with a price though. This type of clothing attracts predators, molesters…might it be their classmate, teacher, or some random guy on the street. In every action, there is a reaction.

This is just sad, you go to school to learn and not show off your body. Since when is being modest outdated? Are students gonna go to school looking like strippers in 10 years? Every setting has a dress code and students should learn to abide by that.

there is is huge concern for sexual assault and your going to change this in the schools.OUTRAGEOUS!These kids have NO clue about what self respect is. Their arms and shoulders fine with tank tops, but there is absolutely no reason abdomens and high upper thighs need to be shown.

Good that we are prioritizing such things in a school setting. Next let's tackle math. #education

I know of a Christian school who had a grade 8 teacher that took the dress code way to far. She kept what she called a “sweater of shame” that she would force young girls to wear if she deemed their clothing to tight or too revealing. Shaming them in public was her thing.

I love all these people being like ‘kids need this’ too bad it’s only ever enforced to shame young girls about their bodies and into not ‘tempting’ boys.

Uniforms for all!

As per my point of view kids go to school to get quality education, learn etiquettes, manners and discipline and to achieve these goals there are certain rules kids have to follow. These things makes foundation of our kids and foundation of civilized society.
