Record #:

Author(s):
Abstract:
Students come to school wearing all types of attire, including gang symbols and colorful, descriptive shirts that can express anything from humorous to very suggestive statements. Schools in turn seek to regulate some types of student dress. Grantham discusses the school's authority to regulate student attire and what criteria school officials must apply when formulating dress code regulations that are constitutional.
