I can help with that one! Get your daughter to ask if that particular rule applies to faculty as well as students. If it does (and it always does), then all she has to do is point out the sextogenarian teacher with the "blue rinse"-blue hair (every school has at least one) as being in violation of that rule. Ta-daaa!

No black or purple nails? Okay, black I can kind of understand because black nail polish is usually seriously crappy nail polish which won't go on evenly, won't cover worth a flip, and begins chipping off within 24 hours of application.
But what's wrong with purple nail polish? It's a heckuva lot more attractive and currently fashionable than red or (God forbid!) pink nail polish.

Ugh... the things high school administrators come up with to fixate on and obsess over. So forty slightly-smaller-than-fist-sized skulls on an article of clothing are fine, but one big one on an article of clothing is a "bad thing"?

That one I can sort of understand, even though I personally think that particular genii has long since been let out of his bottle.

Sorry to hijack the thread with this rant, but I just had a major flashback to some of the stupid dress code rules we had when I was in high school.
