We talked a few weeks ago about how there’s a town in Maryland fighting for the right for women to be topless on the beach. In a roundabout way, a school district in Florida is fighting the same fight. 80 seniors at Bartram Trail High School had their photos digitally manipulated to add clothing to areas of the chest that may have been exposed. All of the photos edited were photos of young women and none of them were consulted about this decision prior to the yearbooks being released.

This is a before and after yearbook photo taken of Bartram Trail 9th grade high school student, Riley O’Keefe.

She says it was deemed inappropriate by the school and photoshopped in the printed edition.

Do schools have the right to edit photos in their yearbook? According to the faculty member who made this decision ,everyone that had their photos edited were in violation of the school dress code. Let us know your thoughts! The conversation lives on Facebook!
