THAT works for me. I remember 'gym' when I was in high school (last century). We wore shorts when it was hot, sweats when it got cold, and mixes in the middle. Why can;t this girl be allowed to wear something other than the school-admin-required shorts?
IF there is a real rationale (like a team uniform) then I'll go with the school. If not, then the Libertarian in me says let her wear something else that's functional and safe.

Yeah, if this were a non-Muslim kid, say, whose parents just didn't want her to wear shorts for general modesty reasons (maybe if she were Amish or Mormon or something), then I don't think anyone would give half a damn. The reaction to this seems entirely too knee-jerk to me.
