Either they were having problems with some girls not paying attention in class because they were busy playing with their extensions.

Then unless they are willing to make kids with natural ponytails that play with their hair cut it short, the rule only targets certain students.

Or some girls started pushing the envelope on what the school was willing to allow, and it was easier to ban it completely than to try to draw a line on what was going to be allowed and what wasn't.

then, as it was pointed out earlier, the school is lazily making a blanket rule that is seen as attacking a certain demographic.

It's a shitty policy and they deserve the criticism.

Are those hair styles in the pic ok for public school?



They are not ok for a charter school that receives public funds

Religious schools that receive federal funding can still do many things that are against federal law, including teaching religion, requiring attendance at mass, dress codes, hair style rules, and hiring/employment practices that would ordinarily violate federal law (anti-gay, religious test, etc).

Do you disagree?

Yes. If a private company (or school for this matter) has a set of standards; a certain group of people cant get upset just because it effects them and not someone else. It’s like guys protesting that they should be allowed to have facial hair at a job that says you cant. “It’s unfair to the men!!”

It’s chicken shite imo.

Then shite. All of their hair policies are discriminatory against a certain demographic.

quote:

? Boys’ hairstyles may not cover their ears, eyebrows, or collar of their uniform shirts.
? Boys’ haircuts must be conventional: wedges, shaved heads, uneven cuts, shaved sides with longer
tops, bowl cuts, tails, or lines showing in the hair will not be permitted.

Bans on boys having hair covering their ears discriminates against white boys who wear that Justin Beiber haircut. Banning boys hair from being over the collars discriminates against white boys from the country that want to rock an awesome mullet. Not allowing bowl cuts is racist against asians.

I'm not saying they shouldn't be allowed to make the rule, I'm saying it's a shitty, lazy rule that deserves criticism.

My point is.... you can’t be both a “private” school and accept government funding.


no that wasnt your point...you said....

A school that receives federal funding has to abide by federal anti discrimination laws. My point being... if Christ the King receives federal funding they might be in a pickle here due to federal anti discrimination laws and a possible lawsuit....

The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) was passed initially by Congress in 1965 to authorize programs to benefit educationally needy elementary and secondary students living in areas with high concentrations of children from low-income families. With each reauthorization, it is renamed. Currently it is known as the Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015.


In 1965 the democratic party controlled the House and Senate by 65%...

A huge percentage of parochial schools get federal funding of some sort, usually through the federal meals program. If what you are saying is correct (it isn't) then these schools would actually not even be allowed to be parochial schools. They would not be allowed to even teach religion. Think about what you are suggesting. It is not even logical.
