Starting next school year, dress code policies at Chicago’s public schools can no longer ban head coverings tied to race, ethnicity or hair texture.
Students arrive at Westinghouse College Prep in Chicago's Humboldt Park neighborhood on May 16, 2022. The school revamped its entire dress code policy during the last school year after discovering that some rules, including restrictions on hair-care items like do-rags and bonnets, were causing some students to be admonished more than others.
The updated policy also bans schools from prohibiting hairstyles like locks, twists or braids in the 2022-23 school year, mimicking a new “They can just walk in there with their bonnets on their heads, wear their do-rags, and not have to worry about being kicked out of class because that’s what they wore to school,” Curry said.
School administrators and Local School Councils are tasked with creating and implementing dress code and uniform policies at individual schools.
