The MPS Governing Board was presented a draft of a new policy and new regulations covering student dress last month and are poised to vote on them Tuesday, July 13.
Presenters told the board 90 percent of dress code violators are girls and that they hope the policy will give clear directions on what is prohibited in order to reduce violations â and resulting missed class time.
Board member Lara Ellingson told presenters she wanted to clear up some misconceptions she heard from the public, especially that the general policy was available to the public before the boardâs June 22 meeting, but not the more specific regulations.

In February 2012, the nationâs eyes were on Mesa as the four remaining Republican candidates for president debated. Among those eyes were those of FBI agents who were keeping tabs on a local Neo-Nazi by the name of JT Ready who was amongst the attendees at the Mesa Arts Center.Â
Three months later, Ready would kill his girlfriend and her family â including an infant â in a murder-suicide.Â
âJT Ready was seen speaking with several unidentified subjects at the end of the Republican GOP party debate hosted in Mesa, Arizona,â FBI agents wrote in their report, which was made public under the Freedom of Information Act. âNo criminal activity was observed.âÂ
