Schools used to have dresscodes that prohibited inappropriate clothing.
Hey, you're telling me. When I see a belly-button, I send the student to the principal's office. It's just that, if I don't see that student until 3rd or 4th period, the student is angry because she's been getting away with it until she came to my class, and I'm upset because other teachers are not enforcing the dress code-- or the student has changed clothes between classes. This is a HUGE problem. Some sort of simple school uniform is the answer, but parents are totally against it, no matter how inexpensive to purchase the clothes are that we come up with. In the meantime, the girls look like beginner prostitutes.

It's a problem in most schools. In my school, we have a few teachers who really come down on the kids for what they wear and how they act, other teachers just collect their paychecks and look towards summer vacations.

But, for the most part, they just don't want the hassle they will get from the parents, who buy the stuff and let them walk out of the house wearing those clothes.
