Keegan Carr from Ohio was sent home from school twice for wearing a dress and was told that he did it again he would be suspended.
According to the Mirror, the school’s dress code states: “Attire is not only a reflection of the individual student but also of the general learning environment. Students are required to wear appropriate, comfortable, and safe clothing that is neat, clean, and in good taste."
And while the school insists they do support gay rights, they felt that Keegan wearing a dress to school was a distraction to the rest of the pupils.
However, in an true act of solidarity, ten other pupils showed up at school dressed in clthes for the opposite gender to show their support for their friend.
Talking to 19 Action News, Kalli Akers, one of Keegan’s friends said: “"What Keegan did I don't think was wrong and the school made it look like it was wrong."
Keegan’s father, who doesn’t mind what he son wears, just wants him to follow school rules.
