Case: Dress Code
Ms. Smith takes a class to the local elementary school once a week. In order for the students to participate, she requires that they dress professionally, either in khakis and dress shirt or appropriate dresses. There are a couple students who do not participate each week because they do not like the dress code, or because they say they can not afford clothing within the dress code. Should she alter the dress code for individual students or stick to the professional dress that she requires?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I certainly think that the kids should be held accountable. Maybe someone would be willing to donate clothing items to them. There are usually parents, teachers, etc that will do donations to provide for these kids. |

Comments: The case clearly states that the dress code is only required in Ms. Smith's classroom. If it was a school wide dress code, then the students should be held accountable for abiding by the rules but if it is a class one, they don't need to be held accountable. If it were written in her syllabus handed out at the beginning of the year, then proper arrangements could be made for all students but unless it is a school rule, I don't think it is fair to require a dress code. |

Comments: This solution is insensitive to students that come from lower income backgrounds. Donations are not always guaranteed. |

Comments: The only problem is that you cant hold kids accountable who don't have the money to comply with the teachers dress code. Your suggestion about donations of clothing for students is good but the problem is some students will not admit to having financial issues. |
