Dear Sir, As a member of the global Scottish community, I strongly urge you to change your current policy at Granite City High School, USA, to permit the wearing of appropriate culturally and nationally-recognized formal wear, such as the traditional kilt with Prince Charlie jacket that is common in Scotland and around the world. I was most upset to read about your recent decision to prevent a student from honoring his Scottish heritage and his family by wearing his formal kilt outfit to his high school prom. I urge you to reconsider this decision, and I ask that you change your policy to allow students to honor their cultural heritage at formal events in the future. Sincerely,
