Every student has the right to feel comfortable and accepted in their educational environment. The school should encourage equality and respect students personal identities. Hair policies in school should not discriminate against every student based on gender or cultural background. It is important to create an environment where every student can freely express themselves through their hairstyles and feel comfortable with their identity.
