Supreme Court blocks NC charter school's dress code requiring skirts for girls.
TL;DR
The Supreme Court declined to hear an appeal from Charter Day School in North Carolina, upholding an appellate ruling that barred the school from requiring girls to wear skirts to school. The school's founder had claimed that the dress code was intended to promote "chivalry" and respect for female students. The dress code has since been changed to allow girls to wear pants in accordance with the lower court ruling.
