Ask Judge Tom - Football Edition
User: Hi I am a student in high school and my school banned us from wearing hats that aren't the school football team hat. Are they allowed to take away my right to wear my sports clothing and hat?
Judge Tom: Generally, schools are allowed to establish dress codes for their students. As long as the rules don't discriminate against any students, the courts have approved dress codes. So, your school could set limits on wearing hats, jewelry, certain colors of bandanas, T-shirts with drug or weapon slogans, etc.
