MS Rising Coalition asking Harrison County School District for change in graduation dress code
SUMMARY: The Mississippi Rising Coalition is urging the Harrison County School District to change its graduation dress code policy to be more inclusive towards gender non-conforming students. This comes after a transgender girl was unable to attend her graduation because she did not wear pants, leading to an outcry from LGBTQ+ individuals and allies. The requested change aims to allow students to dress according to their identity rather than gender stereotypes. While the board did not comment on the matter at the recent school board meeting, the Mississippi Rising Coalition hopes they will address the issue at the next meeting.
