Cheerleader controversy

In September 2003, Elma High School made news when the administration banned cheerleaders' short skirts in classrooms or hallways. Some parents argued that the new rule devalues the work the girls put into practicing and maintaining their grades. The school argued that the dress code was being applied equally and that uniforms were in clear violation of the dress code.
