Greg Poole, who has been district superintendent since 2006, said the policy is legal and teaches students to conform as a sacrifice benefitting everyone.

“When you are asked to conform … and give up something for the betterment of the whole, there is a psychological benefit,” Poole said. “We need more teaching (of) sacrifice.”

Fuck right off with that. Your appearance (so long as it’s not designed specifically to distract) is yours. We have minimal ways of expressing ourselves and that is one of them.

By “conform” I can only assume he means this kid should be using noxious hair straighteners and speaking with the Mid-Atlantic accent.

How weird is it that the school is called “Barber’s Hill High School” and they’re making a stink over hairstyles? But of course this was Texas, king of the shithole states.

Would take this quote as highlighting the need to give this school a hard swerve.
