Dress Code For Online Learning

Posted: August 12, 2020 at 9:23 am

The Springfield, Illinois Public School District has updated its dress code policy for remote learning, saying students can’t wear pajama pants or slippers while on camera when classes start later this month.

The district says in its school manual that students should also be sitting up and out of bed, preferably while at a desk or table.

District officials say kids should approach online classes at home the same as they would going to school in person.

However, a few parents say the district doesn’t have the right to say how kids should dress at home.
