The current dress code at Gull Lake is very understandable, yet unfair. Men at Gull Lake are allowed to wear almost anything they want, while women are held to a much higher standard. They are not allowed to show shoulders or their legs. Middle school girls should be taught to love their bodies instead of cover them up. To a very modest extent girls should be able to wear what they’d like, just as boys are allowed to. For most girls clothing is a way for them to express themselves, create confidence, and stay comfortable, our dress code limits girls from doing so. As a school, we should all come to an agreement on a new dress code that both is appropriate, and allows girls to feel both comfortable and confident.

There should definitely not be a double standard with the dress code,we could also agree that head wear is acceptable in some circumstances as wel.

THANK YOU!!!! Finally, a way to stop being treated like we are strippers and that we wear that kind of clothing!! Seriously, we need more equality in school. Boys are no better than us!! And teachers can't control us like they own us....
