  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!)
If this is her policy then it should be sent home to the parents in a form type paper. If the students don't want to participate because "they don't like it" then maybe something will entice them like a homework pass or something. For the kids who cant afford it I know some teachers who can get affordable clothes or maybe send some store in the form to the parents that will make the clothing affordable.

Comments: Incentives are a great motivator. I would try as a teacher to go and look at goodwill or other places and find sizes for those students, although it should not be mandatory because it is not fair to all the students.
