Scottish Dress Wins!



I reported here On Dec. 24th. that an arrogant school principal had banned a young guy with Scottish origins from wearing the kilt at a school dance. I remarked at the time that Muslim garb would no doubt have been OK. We now read:

"It appears a great kilt debate in southeast Missouri has come to a close. After being told to change out of a kilt at a school dance this fall, Jackson High School senior Nathan Warmack received an apology during a school board meeting Monday night. It came with a promise from the district's superintendent to train staff in properly interpreting the school's dress code".

Now he is going to wear Highland dress to the Prom! He will be the cynosure of all eyes. As a wearer of Highland dress myself on occasions, I know what an unfair advantage it gives one.
