The
mother of an East Texas junior high school student is furious after
Marshall Junior High administrators “corrected” her son’s haircut with a permanent marker. Sheldon Williams says he was told that the school’s dress code only
allowed for a single part and that the second part would have to go. An
administrator then took a Sharpie and colored in the offending part.
“If a parent gives you permission then, ok, do that,” says Sheldon’s mom Philleniea. “But to just take the initiative and say, ‘I’m just going to color in his hair with permanent marker?’ Very disrespectful.”
CBS19 says Marshall’s “dress and grooming” code doesn’t expressly prohibit Sheldon’s haircut, and the school’s principal told the station this was her first time dealing with this issue — although similar action had been taken in the past.
