Students wearing jeans to class.

While I can see the value in dress codes such as keeping everyone on an equal playing field or fixing it so they can't wear inappropriate clothes to school, I also am ok with jeans that aren't ripped or as Della said with underwear showing.

When my classmates were wearing jeans I was being dressed in polyester pants and these weird floral dress shirts. It was awful.
 
The public elementary school my great-granddaughters attend has a dress code. Shorts, skorts, skirts, jumpers in either jean material, khaki or solid dark material and the school polo shirt in the different colors it comes in (red, white, blue). On special occasions, there are "pajama days", "sports days" or "inside out days" and the like.

I can remember my public school days: skirts ONLY for girls and they had to adhere to length regulations. We could not wear sleeveless blouses, culottes or wrap-around skirts. No sandals. Boys had to wear their shirts tucked it (only sweaters could be worn not tucked) and belts had to be worn with pants. Boys could wear jeans, as long as they were neat.

Even when I went off to college, girls did not wear pants to class. And that was hard because it was a BIG campus and was very snowy and cold in the winter.
 
When I was in high school we were not allowed to wear jeans, not sure about the boys. On the last day of school, we could wear jeans. Most of my friends and myself wore short skirts to school. That was allowed at that time.
 
Yes...I think students should be allowed to wear jeans to school...👖

When my Son was in school that is mostly what they wore.
He wore what I would call normal jeans.

I also do not care for the pants worn on the hip showing your underwear style.
I never saw anyone wearing those to school, I think they were not allowed to wear that stye to school.
 
It's 2026 - whatever rules are put in place, there will be someone pushing the boundaries and/or complaining.

But yes, men should be able to wear jeans.
