Chicago Public School principal is getting backlash from some parents because she wants to change the dress code at her high school. Melanie V. Betty-Sevier is the principal at King College Prep High School on the South Side of Chicago. She decided to bar students from dressing “provocatively” when they come to school because she felt that were a lot of sexual assault cases in Chicago. Some parents got angered by the new rule change and let the principal know about it at a school council meeting. “The principal — who you all just said most of them have been trained — made a reckless comment to blame victims and associate that with a promiscuous dress,” Natasha Erskine, a parent said at the meeting.
