[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 35096, member: 805"] I don't know Steph, the email doesn't really offend me. If this teacher, with a room of difficult children, tells the kids that we don't wear makeup in elem school and you are still growing, and then asks for you, as a parent, to back her up, I don't see the problem. I would be pleased that this teacher is observant and works to keep the kids - kids. I'm not sure about the "tone" that another poster spoke about. It seems very straight forward, to the point, and unoffensive to me. In regards to the skort, I believe I would have asked, at the time, about the dress code. Most of the schools around here have the fingertip rule. Just because other kids get away with it, doesn't mean I would want my child to. I use that argument way too much with my kids (just because so and so does it, uses it, can't do it, etc.) to be swayed by it as a parent. Addressing the skort issue at that time would have cleared up any dress code issues for the future. Perhaps their dress code is a little obscure and needs to be clarified. Hope difficult child still loves her dress and feels beautiful in it! Sharon [/QUOTE]
