draw the line. I volunteer at my daughter's school and have seen kids sent home for wearing pajama bottoms to school - though there is no written rule prohibiting them. Apparently, for some kids, they're trendy. Some of the worst fashion choices turn up on Halloween. I've seen boys come as pimps and girls as French maids.....this in middle school. Also, when is a "graphic tee" literally too graphic?
When I was in school the big concern was that a girl's skirt couldn't be more than an inch or two above the knees. (Pants were prohibited for girls.) Now the skirts and shorts are so short they leave nothing to the imagination - and the manufacturer thinks nothing of advertising the brand - juicy - across the back.
The school fashion police do, indeed, have a tough job these days.
