We believe that allowing students to wear nose piercings, allowing males to have earrings, and allowing shorts above the knee has no negative impact on their education and is in no way a safety concern. Asking them to replace the nose piercing with a clear "spacer" and restricting males right to wear earrings serves no purpose, other than adding an unnecessary cost to the student and restricting their right to freely express their personality. Making girls wear long shorts, which are difficult to find, forces them to wear jeans in 100+ degree heat and makes them uncomfortable during the school day, which impacts their ability to learn. We are asking that Brownsboro ISD immediately change their dress code policy to allow students to wear piercings in their nose, allow males to wear earrings, and allow female students to wear shorts as much as 5 inches above the knee.

This should also go for guys wearing earrings as well. Making it a dresscode concern brings more attention to it then just treating it as a normal thing.

Its just a damn piece of jewelry what if a student doesn't have the money to buy a spacer is the school gonna pay to get it repierced cause they won't its not as much of a distraction as a spacer cause my spacer tickles my nose but the regular ones don't

Let them have bodily autonomy. Nose piercing is not distracting in any way. They need to express themselves.

If I can work in a hospital where professionalism is our top priority…and tattoos are allowed…surely a high school can allow nose piercings.

before i graduated, nose rings and earrings on both sexes did not effect my learning whatsoever. what really distracted me was when you guys went out of your way and took us away from our learning just for a simple stud.

Replacing the jewelry with a spacer does nothing but put the user at an expense and it is also very hard to find them. A nose piercing is a common piece of jewelry in this day and time and should be treated as such.

If you're going to do a dress code, it needs to be up to date, fair across the board, and enforced equally.

There is no reason for a piercing or shorts to impact our ability to learn.What impacts our ability to learn is being pulled out of class away from our education because of a stud or a tiny hole in our jeans above the knee or men wearing earrings.This is ridiculous and needs to change
