This Kentucky schoolgirl was sent home by school officials for wearing an “inappropriate” outfit to class, but can you spot the offending garment?
According to the Woodford County High School girl’s principal, she was showing a little too much collarbone, charging it was distracting to male students.

Her mother then rushed to the school to provide her with a scarf that covered 95% of her chest and neck. Despite this, the teen still got sent home. This pleased neither the teen nor her mother, so they then took to Reddit to gauge the nation’s response, and not surprisingly, most users found the school’s dress policy to be absurd.Inspired by this show of support, the mother/daughter duo then launched a petition to have Woodford County High’s 11-year-old dress code changed. “This is ridiculous!” one of the petition’s supporters wrote. “Parents are being called away from important jobs, and students are missing important class time because they are showing their collarbones!” “Showing your collarbone shouldn’t be a dress code violation,” wrote another supporter. h/t conservativetribune
Over 3,500 supporters had signed the petition by Monday.
