   Are you sick of all these hood rats in school? The talk around the school is that certain rules of the dress code are not being taken seriously.

   Do the teachers not care; do they think that they do not have the money to get appropriate clothes?  Maybe the parents should be the ones getting in trouble for clothes that are not appropriate.

   When Lexi Williams (’15) was asked what she thought about the current state of the dress code she said, “I think some of the girls need to show a little more respect for themselves.”

    “I don’t mind how the girls dress! It does not bother me.” Was Clinton Massey’s (’15) response to the question do girls dress inappropriate and abuse the dress code.

   Maybe some of the girls get away with abusing the dress code because the fact they are girls. A lot of teachers are guys in this school and the girls don’t get in trouble because they might think they are being sexist.

   Jordan Callahan’s  (’15) response to the question what he thinks of the dress code is that, “The teachers need to appropriately discipline those who wish to not follow the Port Huron Northern high schools rules and codes. It’s preposterous.”

      Other students here might agree with Callahan. Such as Zach Darhower (’15), who said, “Some of the guys need to stop wearing pants that sag down to their ankles, and stop wearing wife beaters.”

   So there are many students who disapprove of how the dress code is not being taken seriously. There are also students who say they don’t mind such as Massey.

   There are even students who didn't know there was a dress code, and then there are students who just do not listen. Like Austin Smith (’16) “I thought I could just wear whatever I want, anytime that I want, because I do what I want.”

   So there are many opposing views on the dress code around the school. Some think it is not being taken very seriously, others say they do not mind it, and then some say they were not even aware of the dress code.
