40 Girls Were Removed From Class For Wearing Leggings in One Day at Tennessee High School
Permalink  
 

Leggings continue to be a point of contention between students and administrators because while girls love wearing them because they're comfortable and versatile, administrators continue to rage against them because, to them, they're inappropriate.

​Mt. Juliet High School administrators in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee reprimanded over 40 girls for wearing leggings yesterday and sent them out of class until they were able to get a change of clothes.

The school's dress code states that students are allowed to wear leggings with an appropriate dress, skirt, or shorts over them - an appropriate coverup falling at least three inches above the knee.

According to Wilson County Schools' spokeswoman, Amelia Hipps, all 40 girls were not wearing appropriate tops with their leggings. "The bottom line is, the tops weren't long enough," she told ​​The Tennesseean. "It didn't have anything to do with the leggings, it was what was (worn) over the leggings not meeting student dress code."

Calls were made to the parents of all the girls who were removed from class and, by the end of the day, only eight students did not meet the dress code. There's no word on whether these eight girls were allowed to return to class.

The big deal is, leggings are not pants.

These girls basically had on thick panty hose.

I agree with the school.

They were inappropriate.

Yep, leggings are basically footless tights - they are not pants.

Looks like LL cares.

Apparently the school cares.

Would you go around in just a pair of panty hose or tights?

Might as well be naked.

Yes.

When you can see every little thing.

Yes. It is.

You can not tell me that you would be hunky dory ok with your daughter leaving the house in leggings with nothing covering her butt and genital area.

This pretty much says it all -

The school's dress code states that students are allowed to wear leggings with an appropriate dress, skirt, or shorts over them - an appropriate coverup falling at least three inches above the knee.

According to Wilson County Schools' spokeswoman, Amelia Hipps, all 40 girls were not wearing appropriate tops with their leggings. "The bottom line is, the tops weren't long enough," she told ​​The Tennesseean. "It didn't have anything to do with the leggings, it was what was (worn) over the leggings not meeting student dress code."



They didn't follow the dress code.

Yeah, I'm sure most mothers and fathers want their daughters to display camel toe in school.  no

Females should be taught to respect themselves, not put themselves on display. That is the parents job, in most cases. When the parents fail, the school does need to enforce the rules.

Put a decent length shirt on for crying out loud. It's not that hard.

I agree.

School uniforms are the answer to all of this.

they need to just have super basic dress codes that are not gender specific.

Everything between the neck and knees should be covered. Shoulders covered. Pants, shorts or skirts or dresses only. No leggings or yoga pants.

Stop dressing like a ho bag to come to school. Take some pride in what you wear. If you want to show off all your bits to everyone at a party go for it. I think we just need uniforms.

The one in the middle, those are panty hose, so let's not pretend they are yoga pants.

Even if they look thick enough to pass for pants, you will be in for a surprise when the legging-clad girl bends over and you get a full moon. There is a reason the school wants them to wear something over them.

Yeah. None of them are pants.

And it doesn't matter how skinny a person is, they are not flattering at all.

They show everything.

And I can't believe a parent would let their child out of the house in them.

Remember the "slip dress"? It was a slip. Nothing else.

The camisoles for tops are another thing I don't get.

It's a slip too.

I was in line at Walmart once, right behind a girl in (for her) skin toned leggings and a blouse.

She was probably 12 or 13, and she might as well have been naked from the waist down.

I agree with y'all. Leggings are not pants. Show your bits, get sent home. What is wrong with these parents?

There's a reason they're called leggings and not pants. Not sure where the confusion comes in.

May be not appropriate for high school, but they look great on the right women.

I like the trend which should be encouraged for women, even applauded. It great to walk through the park and see them with yoga mats headed for the outdoor yoga. Heck, even if they were walking around kicking puppies I would be happy.

Next trend should be bathing suits as formal wear or body paint as clothes, but not PJ's in public. PJ's in public is just lazy.

Why would a mother send her teenage daughter to school dressed so she looks like she's naked?

ed - you are assuming the mother knows. Many parents leave the house before their kids in the morning.

 Well, shoot, it obvious. 

Mom has a sick fetishes and is using the girl to lure "party guests" to the house where both of them take turns "playing" with them in the basement.

No, I mean that when I've seen girls (not young women, girls) with their mothers in a store, and the younger one was wearing leggings that showed their anatomy like they had nothing at all on below the waist, it never occurred to me that the mother might be using her as bait. 

I'm thinking that it's out of character for you to suggest or believe that.

 

Although things like that do show up in the news occasionally.

Yes. I was being sarcastic.

But do you see how twisted it is to just assume something like that?
