But Does It Match His Shoes?

The ACLU, ever vigiliant in its effort to protect our rights, has won the right for a 17 year old boy to wear a skirt to school.

A 17-year-old high school student - a male - may wear a skirt to school under an agreement worked out by the American Civil Liberties Union.

Michael Coviello, a senior at Hasbrouck Heights School in New Jersey, said he is wearing a skirt to school "to bring attention to the fact that the [school's] ban on shorts doesn't make sense."

Coviello's school district prohibits students from wearing shorts to class between Oct. 1 and April 15. Corviello called the policy arbitrary and unfair.

"It is discriminatory for the school dress code to allow skirts but not shorts," Corviello said.
Michael's mother agreed. Laura Coviello contacted the ACLU-NJ after the principal told Michael to stop wearing skirts and kilts to class.

I'm sure America will be a better place because this kid is walking around in a skirt.
