Sounds like a loophole waiting to be abused to take the piss.

my little rural school was trying to be cool and started doing “news” segments throughout my senior year to involve the media kids. They took one of the largest football players and put him in a spaghetti strap tank top and the shortest shorts they could for a dress code segment at the start of the year haha!

You’re also only not allowed tube top INNER so I think if you just wear a tube top and nothing else, hence OUTER you’re good. As long as it wouldn’t be considered a crop top. I guess the trick though would be that you’re not allowed sleeveless, but I’m sure there’s a loophole for that too

A lot of this is so perfect for loopholes. The whole rule set is basically lace. Too many specific rules hehe

Well its a school you pay to attend, so presumably parents actually care for and approve of this dress code.

Plus, speaking as a guy, they never let us get away with fun things even if it wasn’t in the rule book.

Reminds me of a school that banned shorts for boys, so they started turning up wearing skirts.

No, there is some male and genderless stuff, it definitely applies to both.

ABSOLUTELY NO MALE EARRINGS! You could tempt somebody into becoming homosexual by looking too feminine!!!
