My grandson wore a baseball cap during lunch, was returning to class and had his base ball cap on. Before he was going into the classroom he knows he has to remove the baseball cap. The principal saw him taking his cap and told him his cap would be returned at the end of the day, but he was given a 30 minute detention for wearing the cap. Does wearing a baseball cap inside of a school building constitutue a violation of the law or can it just be a school violation which warrants detention to students, because of their school policy? Has his rights been violated? or Does he need to comply and do the detention. If the school is going to take the students caps then it should be in their school dress code policy. Should I challenge the school board on this policy which is not in the dress code policy “Not allowed to wear caps”.
