FRISCO Blog | The Dallas Morning News: "Long the leader in dress code enforcement, nearby Mesquite ISD has taken one of its most drastic actions yet.
DMN colleague Karol Halloway reports that 4-year-old Taylor Pugh cannot attend Floyd Elementary classes because his hair is too long. He receives private lessons in the library instead.
District officials say all students must abide by the code, regardless of age. They say the dress code prepares students for a business-orientated society where appropriate dress is critical."

4 year old elementary student? Thank goodness these nursery school hippies are being taken in hand...next you know, they'll refuse to sit at desks and be quiet.
Is his hair longer than any of the girls'? Seems to me the kid has grounds for a dandy gender-discrimination suit: "You'll never guess how I earned enough money to pay for Harvard Law when I was just 4...."
I remember the good ol' days back in the seventies when the city of Austin had an "undress" code. Ahh, that was the life!
