School resurrects dress code

VIERA — Shopping sprees might be on tap for Merritt Island High students after the school board's unanimous approval Tuesday of a policy requiring that all upper garments include sleeves.

The vote -- which effectively bans tank tops and basketball jerseys for the school's 1,472 students -- resurrects a three-year-old policy that was abandoned when the school adopted a district-wide dress code this school year.

A committee of students, parents and administrators that pushed to re-adopt the policy expects it will reduce the number of dress code violations when it goes into effect in January, after winter break.

Meanwhile, Brevard County School Board members have suggested that district staff members research surrounding counties' dress codes and survey local parents, in light of queries from at least four principals who support Merritt Island's policy.

"I've gotten enough questions out there from people, that I want to put it out to the public and our stakeholders on how restrictive they would like us to be on the dress code," vice chairwoman Amy Kneessy told board members.

Officials say Merritt Island's policy comes after students took advantage of recently relaxed rules by turning up for class in racerback tops -- which fall within guidelines but still expose bra straps -- as well as prohibited spaghetti straps, and tube and halter tops.

District policy allows tank tops with straps at least 11/2-inches wide, but mandates that "the cut of sleeveless garments must not expose undergarment or be otherwise immodest," according to a committee document submitted in support of the request.

Some parents had disputed the exposure of clear bra straps, Principal Gary Shiffrin said.

"A consistent dress and grooming policy is necessary in order to maintain order, provide a safe school environment and promote discipline," the committee wrote.

District rules on dress code additions required that the school form an advisory committee, whose members decided to bring the issue to the school board for a vote.
Board members generally agreed Tuesday that dress code restrictions which go beyond district-wide policy should be left up to individual school communities, as each has different needs.

But they also agreed that it doesn't hurt to ask for public input on the district-wide policy as a means of determining whether all schools or perhaps a certain group would benefit.

"I've heard this question every year from the community, so I'm ready to get an answer -- do they want this or not," Kneessy said.
