Why this petition matters

Started by Sophia Trevino

Please visit my webpage www.nomoredresscodes.com for any updates, stories, and to register for upcoming protests. 

We have also started a gofundme page where all proceeds will help make more shirts for more students. Let get the entire district in one!

Below is the solution me, and my fellow classmates, want. I do not wish to abolish the dress code altogether. However, there are many versions of the Toronto dress code in effect throughout our nation that have been successful. There is no reason it cannot be successful here in Georgia.  Proposed Dress Code

edit: September 6, 2022. Simpson Middle School has changed their dress code. Please visit my website for assistance on starting your own protest in your county. 

Sign my petition for the victims of this gender/race/class discrimination. I am not planning on changing dress code of every school and being in history books. I am just a young girl, supporting what I believe in.

While the sexist nature of dress codes is readily apparent, many of you are asking how dress codes are racist. Thank you for asking that question.  For information as to the disproportionate effect dress codes have on people of color, please see the following link

As for how dress are classist, please consider a student who does not have resources for clothing other than those that are hand-me-downs or donations. They have to take those clothes as they are.
