A teacher called the principal's office. That teacher said the boy's shoes were disrupting the classroom. Principal Bob Heilmann says there was name calling. He asked the student to take off the heels.
"As a principal of a high school, I have to ferragamo shoes take the paternal side and make sure he's going to be okay," said Heilmann, afraid the boy would be bullied. "Anytime anyone goes out from, quote, 'the norm' or anytime anyone wants to make a statement, you have to be willing to take what comes with tory burch flat ."
Riverview students we talked to believe most at the school are accepting of students expressing themselves however they want, and don't care who wears salvatore ferragamo shoe -- even if they don't like it.
The student in question told a friend he never felt any sort of shame...that is, until the principal got involved. And when a small protest broke out at the school, with one boy choosing to wear a dress to show his support of his high heeled friend, the principal also called him into the office and talked him into heading home to change his clothes, coach sandals saying he was "concerned about [the student's] safety."
If most of the students didn't care, and the high heeled student didn't feel he was being bothered, why does the principal keep worrying so much about the potential bullying and threats to "safety" that he keeps sending students home to change? Unless maybe it is the principal with the problem?
A friend sent me a link to these shoes this week with the caption, "These were made for you!" Sigh. She got the tense right, "were" made for me. I have a thing for pretty and vintage pretty? Forget about tory burch flats. Love it. 1958-1963 pretty? Adore it. But when I opened the link to these shoes my first thought was, "Oh, never. I would never wear those now." I have evolved from peep toe kitten heels to black flats. Plain and simple, tried and true. I am now a black flat kind of gal.
