Pinellas dress code sparks social media controversy

2016年09月28日

Faythe Kelly, a student at Gibbs High School in St. Petersburg, posted a photo on Facebook after the school made her change into scrubs. She was told her outfit choice broke the school dress code.


"For my dress being, maybe half an inch above my knee, I was forced to be humiliated in front of my colleagues,” says Kelly.


The Pinellas School District only requires dresses to be midthigh or longer. Each school is able to make its own modifications.

The rule for Gibbs is stricter, the dress must be to a student's knees


"It's not skin tight; it's not doing anything else besides showing my kneecaps,” says Kelly.


10news WTSP contacted the district and was told that at the beginning of each year families sign an agreement stating that they will comply with the student code of conduct.


While Kelly agrees with following the dress code, she feels this outfit wasn't in violation.


"I originally was surprised by what happened because I originally bought that dress in order to respect my dress code because I don't like getting in trouble,” says Kelly.


Kelly says wearing scrubs is more distracting than the dress, and felt it was uncalled for.


“We should be able to try and fix our wrongs and if we don't have anything else, then wear the scrubs or something but that should be a last resort. I don't believe humiliation is solving an issue,” says Kelly.


However, the district says the rules are rules and she signed that agreement.
