Do schools have "dress codes" for staff photographs?
I was online seaching for a pic of the "white-powder freeper", and thought he might have submitted his pic to the Club G'itmo gallery..

this pic is not of him, but claims to be a staff photo of a guy who works at a high school..

When kids get sent home/expelled for wearing "political message" shirts, are teachers/staff immune??

BTW.. some of these pics are downright OBSCENE in a funny sort of way..If these are the usual "warriors", it's easy to see why they are not "battle-ready" these days :eyes:

Hundreds of freepers pictured, but no Chad so far..

1. When I taught school,
there is no way that any political message like that would be allowed.

2. crap, link goes to Rush's place.
Teachers in schools I have been in can wear them covered up with another shirt, not in open like this. Why would anyone want one of these? Why would anyone want "I'm with stupid" either? Club Gitmo, does that mean you have been locked away or that you are such a fearsome person to keep people detained without any rights? Not much worth bragging about either way.

4. Good God what a bunch of losers!
It turns my stomach to think that so many of these idiots share the planet with me.

Millions of gullible idiots will be the downfall of this country.

6. Our contract calls for "professional dress"
There are more specifics, of course, but in no way would that shirt fly. Of course, staff pictures are usually taken the week before school starts, so dress codes are a little more lax (there aren't any students), but on picture day we all run to our rooms to affix ties and long slacks and whatnot, before changing back into shorts and t-shirts.

Maybe they have a Freeper for a principal who thought it was funny, and not political.

7. I had my spring pictures taken with a pink
Edited on Sat Dec-02-06 02:57 PM by roody
"no enemy" t shirt. Spring pics are the ridiculous consumer nightmare in which they make stickers etc. of the photo and send them home unsolicited with prices. Many families neither return the photos nor send money. Apparently it is lucrative anyway because they keep doing them.

9. Ditto -
we would have been 'written up', post haste!

Our dress codes did not allow t-shirts, plain, or with message. Some teachers wore them under shirts that could be buttoned up, but the messages on the shirts, if there were any, were innocuous.

10. No way this would be allowed at our school, unless it was in a skit
at Homecoming or a Play.
Just going to the Limpball site made me nauseated. :puke:
You can FEEL the thick-headed ignorance emanating from them! :thumbsdown: :dunce:
