Highland Hills Middle School dress code controversy

[edit]

On August 28, 2019, Highland Hills Middle School's principal, Wendy Ivey, told a female student that the student was not allowed to wear a T-shirt with the text "Why be racist, sexist, homophobic, or transphobic when you can just be quiet?" Administrators called it disruptive. Dozens of students protested. The student went home with her parents rather than change or cover up the shirt.[5][6][7]
