Texas School's Ban on All-Black Outfits Faces Backlash

Charles Middle School's dress code change, aimed at addressing mental health concerns, is criticized by parents and community members.

The school prohibited all-black outfits, linking them to depression and criminality.
Parents and community members argue the policy doesn't address underlying mental health issues.
Miscommunication between the school and district led to premature implementation of the dress code.
Students can still wear black shorts for PE and on designated free dress days.
The policy is currently on hold as the district reviews community feedback.
