OK, I'll bite.

I'm not sure I think the right of expression extends to children doing whatever they want in school. I don't have any problem with schools dictating dress codes to children, and if I had children I wouldn't have any qualms about sending them to a school that required a uniform.

If I read you right, I understand your comments about the school embracing a double-standard. I am obviously not for different standards for students according to the political biases of the faculty. But I don't have a big problem with it because I don't have a big problem with dress codes in schools, as long as they are enforced fairly.
