When Kimberly Jones got a text from her 11-year-old daughter, Bella, she was upset.。
Not because her daughter was texting while at school, but because the Lansing, Kansas middle schooler was forced to swap her leggings for school sweatpants after being told her tunic was too short and a dress code violation. 。
Jones detailed the incident and the embarrassment her daughter felt in a Facebook post that has since gone viral. 。

"She was begging to move because they embarrassed and harassed her. Why? Because apparently 13 year old boys (she's 11 in 6th grade) can't control themselves around this. The code was because her shirt was too short," Jones explained. "In what world is it acceptable to call out and embarrass a child over THIS outfit? Her butt is even covered!

"As I sat there waiting for the principal I saw a teacher walk by with pants so tight I could see her underwear...but this is unacceptable? Are we living in the 1900s? Are we living in the 1900s? And am I being punked because I just cannot believe this crap is real," Jones wrote on Facebook. 。 Leggings have now been specifically deemed prohibited in the school's handbook and, according to a statement from the school to 。 TODAY,
it "will continue to examine our policies, how they are enforced, and how to maintain an effective learning environment while continuing to make sure all students and parents are treated with dignity and respect..." 。(责任编辑：知識)
