Parents in El Paso, Texas are pushing back on a dress code that would ban students from wearing all black. Charles Middle School sent out a notice to parents claiming that wearing all black was linked to mental health problems. “We are … eliminating a look that has taken over on campus with students wearing black tops with black bottoms, which has become more associated with depression and mental health issues and/or criminality,” Principal Nick DeSantis said in the letter. After backlash from parents, the decision has been put on hold. (newser)
