Dress and Grooming Codes
The Superintendent shall authorize the principals to establish dress and grooming codes for the students in their respective programs.
Grooming Regulations
Hair-length regulations that apply to boys, but not to girls, do not manifest to such an affront to students’ constitutional rights to merit judicial intervention, nor do they violate the Texas Equal Rights Amendment.
