Even covered by a gown, hot pants and G-strings are not appropriate attire for a graduation ceremony, school board members in one south suburban district say.
The Rich Township High School Board is considering instituting a strict dress code next year after board members said they were aghast at the attire worn by some of this year’s grads.
“When you come to graduation with hot pants, no stockings, 6-inch heels, G-strings and all other types of attire under a gown, that’s just inappropriate and highly disrespectful,” board member Brunetta Hill-Corley — whose daughter recently graduated from Rich Central in Olympia Fields — said at a board meeting last week.
“Morals do start at home, but in the event they’re not at home, the school district needs to uphold them.”

The district is also considering requiring a 2.0 grade point average to participate in the ceremonies

Parents who deliberately take their children into places like San Fransicko should be charged with child abuse.

Agreed board member Sonya Norwood: “We have parents who allow their children to wear anything — or half of anything — to school as well as to graduation. . . . “As I watched the teachers or instructors that presided over the ceremony, there are certain undergarments I think they should have had on,” she said. “You’re saying you have a standard that you want the students to uphold, so we have to be the example.’’Apparently, the teachers in that district like to go "ommando".

Good grief.
Just nuke San Fransicko from orbit, it’s the only way to be sure.

The school officials trash education but want respect? How funny. Schools aren’t deserving of anything more than a thong.
