Dress codes in school: Who decides?

Big, in-depth piece here about how a South Carolina community is dealing with dress code issues in school. Among the latest challenges: Shirts that reference songs by rappers. Should school boards decide this stuff? Should principals? Should the ACLU? Good round-up from American School Board Journal at the end of the article in the Florence Morning News about the legal history here. An academic makes the best suggestion: Engage the community. Parents and students.
