4 y/o Texas Boy was sent home from school during his FIRST WEEK at Kindergarten because his LONG HAIR violated their policy for boys!!
Jessica Oates was furious when they told her her son was required to return a letter "citing a religious or cultural exceptioin" otherwise he needed to CUT his long hair in order to continue his education at Barbers Hill Independent School District.
She said she refused to go through with the orders and said his long hair is "a part of who he is" as a person. She said "He's never had a hair cut..it's just kind of part of his identity. Also, i don't believe that short hair should be required to get an education."
Barbers Hill policy has a strict rule that boys must keep their hair short and above the neck, eyes and ears.
She attempted to put his hair into a bun but they still didn't approve.
Jessica said "I feel like my son is owed the same education that all other children in this school district have" as she slammed the SEXIST guidelines as the school basically said that her son's hair is GIRLY and not right for a BOYS!!
She says "He's just so smart and it blows my mind..full of energy and excited to learn."
The school released a statement and said "Our local elected board has established policy based on community expectations, and Barbers hill admin will continue to implement the said policy"
Jess Herbst, New Hope mayor and transgender rights activist said "Barbers Hill Texas School District discriminatory hair policy is an attempt to force everyone into medicore stereotypes. #CivilRights"
A Woman mocked the district stating "Well, it's Barbers Hill. They like cutting hair. Thats how they stay in business"..and Jessica said she will NOT cut his hair.
Do you think Men with Long Hair is "Girly" and not right for a man to have?
