<p>Our HS has strict gang attire rules for good reason , although the kids complain about it. In our case it really is a genuine effort to try to limit the "gang-advertising" and protect the kids. </p>
<p>I am surpised that in the year 2006, any school, private or public, would find it neccessary to concern themselves with haircolor!
Geez, especially in schools w/ uniforms or strict dress codes, it seems pretty normal for a kid to want to liven things up a bit.</p>
