Callie Sampson calls for a reversal of recent dress code changes to support student individuality.

After hours of debate and public comment, the board voted to revert the district’s new restrictive language on leggings and spandex in the 2026–27 student code of conduct; one member dissented and members asked for a policy workshop.

The board approved updates to the student code of conduct and accepted an amendment requiring dress-code enforcement be applied fairly regardless of body type, gender, race, disability or other protected characteristics; staff will implement acknowledgement processes for families and training for administrators.

After a wave of student testimony accusing monitors of gender-biased enforcement, the Tucson Unified School District governing board unanimously adopted a revised student dress code that emphasizes studentspersonal choice except where clothing affects instruction or safety and tightens language on prohibited attire.
