Yes, but, Mademoiselle, raging hormones, bare cleavage and ass make for
a helluva distraction. I look at it like this: personally, I wouldn't mind provocative degrees of undress by most women, but, since I'm a teacher, seeing 16-year-old girls provocatively dressed is annoying and uncomfortable. It becomes a matter of biology and involuntary instinctive reactions for all concerned. Schools should educate, not sexually titillate.

I can see banning cellphones ...
but people should be allowed to dress as they please.
I mean, a cyclops would clearly be "distracting" to many students, too ... and yet, no one's suggesting a kid with one eye shouldn't be allowed to enroll.
Too bad there wasn't a guy in our class that everybody called the "Cricket Boy",
because I would have liked to stand up in class and tell everybody,
"You can make fun of the Cricket Boy if you want to, but to me he's just like everybody else."
Then everybody would leave the Cricket Boy alone, and I'd invite him over to spend the night at my house,
but after about five minutes of that loud chirping I'd have to kick him out.
Maybe later we could get up a petition to get the Cricket Family run out of town.
