As a former school board member, I am saddened by the timidity of school boards. At this time, the David of school boards are mismatched against the Goliath of teacher unions. The enforcement of dress codes is a beginning for school boards to awaken from their leadership coma and demand a professional appearance through a dress code.
The Star-Ledger’s Joseph Wardy on teacher dress codes. Sounds like an idea for a new reality show: “What Not to Wear in the Classroom?” “Make me a SuperTeacher?” “America’s Next Top Education Fashionista?”
