A Texas high school student growing out his hair to make a wig for his sick younger sister withdraws from school after being threatened with suspension over the length of his hair, he says.
states"male students’ hair shall not extend beyond the ear opening on the sides nor beyond the top of a dress shirt collar in the back."
His mother, Jamie Mathis-Johnson, said she met with school district officials about its policy on male students' hair length and they would not budge. "There was an avenue and process to seek resolution to the issue that the parent chose not to take, thereby negating the opportunity for a different resolution," the statement signed by superintendent Paula Renken said.
