School Districts and Tattoo Policies

I came across this interesting article in The Times - Picayune about the struggles school districts are facing as they try to maintain proper school dress codes while trying to accommodate rights to self-expression.

"It’s a lesson that has come about because of a failed policy by one principal to require that all tattoos be covered to remove distractions from learning."

Other school districts have taken a broader approach to the issue. For example, one school district is working toward a new district wide policy that would require students to cover only lewd and gang related tattoos.

It certainly is a touchy subject.

Read the full story here.
