Hazel addresses dance dress code

Shoulders have been shown before at Coeur d’Alene School District dances, and Board of Trustees Chair Christa Hazel (pictured) wants to make sure dress code policy reflects that. During a regular meeting of the board on Monday night, Hazel introduced a proposed change to the district’s dress code regarding what types of dresses girls can wear to dances. She told The Press Tuesday that the decision to push for the change was due in part to discussing the current policy with several parents, as well as her understanding of what types of dresses are available to students. “It’s an appropriate, measured, response,” Hazel said. “We just thought we should clear things up and make it easier for families and students so we can have consistent rules and consistent interpretation while supporting our students in having a fun time during a social occasion”/ Keith Cousins , Coeur d’Alene Press.

Question: It’s nice to have someone chairing the Coeur d’Alene School Board who’s young enough to remember the dresses she wore at local Homecoming and prom dances, right?
