To take the place of Christmas.
what made them inappropriate? That the outfits were flesh colored and more than what students wear every day? Or that there were underwear on top of flesh colored outfits?
Oh my god, underwear worn on top of clothes. The school system would have been in anarchy.
It's not "school bashing" it's "lack of common sense" bashing. Apparently you lack it as well.

I don't know, but apparently Superman wasn't born with super humor.
He may have been stupid, but I like seeing stupidity in some direction other than left for a change.
It wouldn't surpirise me to hear of some principal encouraging a "birthday suit" day.
Clever commentary.

Well, duh, if they're going to have a "superhero" costume day, what else?
Seems they cut the quote. From Breitbart.com :
"They're not see-through or anything," said one of the girls, Chelsea Horowitz, an honor student and softball player. "All the teachers thought it was cute."
At which point I would say... of course they would. kids in underwear in front of teachers is like leaving meat uncovered in the street...
Infidel dog - how dare you print Mohammeds image?.
Krishna will smite you. Buddha as usual won't get involved.
The French love Superman.
but you see, this was flesh colored clothing. It's immoral, you see.
I hope they make the girl's swim and volleyball team wear burkas during meets. Someone might see ankle!
So exactly which superhero outfit is 'appropriate' for school?
The girls participated in what the school promoted and then penalized for participating.

I know I am a lot happier since you posted the picture!
Not normally. But on "Super Hero Day", they are fine. They are less "disruptive" than many a Wonder Woman or Super Girl (Or the Cat Lady) costumes probably were.
As I understand, it is a book pushed by the schools because it doesn't have violence against people.
Actually no sarcasm tag required. If they had brought a toy or fake M-1 to complete their Marine ensemble, they very well could have been expelled. Zero Tolerance, don't you know.
Good Lord, I've seen cheerleader uniforms that were more "disruptive" even in the mid 1960s. ... In fact most of them are/were, even at the high school level. Those are generally worn all day on the days of major events.
