"Freedom of Religion"

   A 14-year old student, Ariana Lacono, was given a suspension from school for wearing a nose ring. That nose ring was against the school's dress code. But to her, that ring is brought to the first amendment to express freedom of religion. Ariana says,"I think it's kind of stupid for them to kick me out of school for a nose piercing,It's in the First Amendment for me to have freedom of religion." So honestly, i think it is pathetic that the school suspended her. I mean if it is against the school dress code then i think it would have been fine to speak with the family of the student. The school and the family could have came down to some sort of an agreement. But what about other religions? whats about for students who are Jewish and wear that little hat. Are they allowed to wear that, or are they going to have some days of suspension?
