Florida high school altered girls' yearbook photos it deemed immodest
CBSN
Controversy surrounds the digital alteration of photos in a northeast Florida high school's yearbook to cover up some skin exposed in the original photos, which school officials deemed inappropriate.
CBS Jacksonville affiliate WJAX reports 80 students – all female -- at Bartram Trail High School in St. Johns had their yearbook photos altered without their permission. Exposed shoulders and low necklines were covered up. Officials of the St. Johns County School District told the station yearbook photos must follow dress code guidelines and they deemed the 80 pictures inappropriate. The officials said the school's yearbook coordinator, a female teacher, made the decision.More Related News
