You might remember the story last week about Cameron Boland, the junior at Fort Myers High School who was stripped of her elected position as her countys National Honor Society Historian really more of a social-media/press relations job because she gave her campaign speech wearing a sundress with excessively thin straps. (We keep seeing them described as spaghetti straps, but those are at least linguini straps.) Anyhow, all the negative publicity the story generated seems to have shamed the school district, or at least made it say Oh well, what the hell, and now the Lee County School Districts superintendent has given Cameron back the Historian position. Another girl who also had her NHS job taken away for being bare-shouldered has been restored to the position of NHS president for Lee County. The girls will share their positions with the students who were chosen to replace them, so that all noses may remain safely in joint.
Cameron who in addition to dressing like a shameless hussy is also her class president, captain of the softball team, as well as being in the international baccalaureate program and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes has had some fun with her viral semi-celebrity, but is glad to have everything ironed out now. Ill go places and theyll say oh, youre the girl with the shoulders, she said. Youre the girl with the spaghetti straps. She says that if shed had any idea that things would get so goofy, shed have just worn the jacket shed brought with her to the speech but didnt think to put on before speaking.
Cameron, having gotten away with her brazen shoulder-nakedness, now says, Im still going to wear sundresses and show my shoulders. This is not going to stop me. Dear god. Sundresses, in Florida? What sort of monster have they created?

(14,337 posts)and see not only what the teen girls are wearing, but the TEACHERS. lol Yep, it gets very, very HOT in Florida in May. If the male students, and teachers, can wear cargo shorts (boys showing their underwear) to school, the female students, and teachers, can wear sundresses.
"Pull up your shorts". "I don't want to see your underwear hanging out". That girl's sundress reveals nothing.
