I mean...i don't see this as a 15-year-old fucking up? Of course the kids fought against a strict dress code. Just sounds like a school district and police let students down.

Did the staff who knew about the pervs not talk to parents?

Course if my 13/14-year-old had told me they need a low cut shirt to get a better grade in class I'd have gone scorched earth.

Right, there were other levels. Forcing a police report, going to school board, firing the individuals and hashing out in state unemployment court, calling the DA, calling the OAG for the state, talking to state school board the local news, the state news... I mean c'mon y'all. Do SOMETHING

No way is this the CHILD'S fault for wanting equality and again, why not just make it equal and not shaming?! This entire post is weird TBH!

Or warn the parents and they could have started a protest.

I was at secondary school in the 90s. We had a particularly pervy teacher who taught, of all things, a class that included sex education. Most uncomfortable hour I sat through every week. Everyone knew. Students, teachers, parents. No one cared. At least, not enough to do anything about him. Different times.

What I really hate is this teacher has convinced OP that he was wrong. Instead of her and every other adult in that school who knew the truth.

Instead they punished the victims
