School District Stands for Truth, Debuts Dress Code Banning Boys from Dressing as Girls
A Mississippi school district has unveiled a new dress code that aims to maintain consistency with students’ biological sex, prohibiting those who identify as transgender from dressing in conflict with their assigned gender.
In its policy manual for grades 7-12, the Harrison County School District has introduced a controversial dress code for elementary, middle, and high school students. The code includes a total of 30 rules that went into effect at the start of the 2023-2024 school year on Aug. 4, as reported by WLOX-TV.
The dress code includes the following guidelines:
- Boys and girls must adhere to the dress attire consistent with their biological sex as stated in their student records.
- Boys must wear shorts or pants, shirts, and footwear according to the Harrison County School District’s dress code.
- Girls must wear dresses, skirts, shorts, or pants, along with shirts or blouses and appropriate footwear as per the school district’s dress code.
- Hoods on garments are not permitted to be worn indoors or on school buses.
The dress code gained attention after the school district’s decision to prevent a transgender boy from wearing a dress to his high school graduation. The student, identified as “L.B.,” filed a motion to challenge the school’s decision, but a federal judge appointed by former President Donald Trump upheld the district’s ruling, denying L.B.’s motion.
The school district argued that participating in a graduation ceremony is not a fundamental right, especially since the student had already completed the school year and was no longer enrolled. Additionally, the district emphasized that the student’s school record identified him as male.
While the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Mississippi supported L.B.’s motion, it did not provide assistance to a 12-year-old boy who was reprimanded and sent home for wearing a shirt that stated, “There are only two genders.” This raises questions about the inconsistency in defending free speech rights.

While debates over dress codes and gender identity continue, it is crucial to address the larger issues plaguing the educational system. Many schools are failing to provide quality education, resulting in students who struggle with basic reading and writing skills.
Instead of focusing on education, schools have become platforms for partisan agendas, promoting left-wing propaganda that prioritizes transgenderism and race-based “equity.” These distractions divert attention from pressing national concerns such as inflation, crime rates, racial tensions, border security, and geopolitical conflicts.
Amidst these real-life emergencies, a boy’s desire to wear a dress to a graduation ceremony should not be considered a significant problem. It is essential to prioritize the issues that truly threaten our nation’s security and well-being.
