First Impressions Last

At the beginning of this school year I labored under the duress of my district’s males’ “ties required” dress code. I wore the ties grudgingly and rejoiced greatly when the requirement was removed back in November.

I have worn a tie to school on maybe one day since then.

Today, after school, after I’d changed into my biking shorts and t-shirt, one of my students wandering the after-hours hallways stopped long enough to say, “This is strange. I never see you when you’re not, like, wearing a tie.”
