ATTENTION!!!! Education hindered for lack of a belt!!

I got a call from my daughter's school. The vice-principal advised me that my daughter was not wearing a belt. He said, "The school dress code mandates that all children must wear a belt to school, ma'am." I said, "Alright, but it will be a little while before I can get it to her." So anyway, I arrived at the school about two hours later due to the fact that I had arrange an early lunch break with my supervisor, and then drive forty-five minutes to my house to get the belt. Upon my arrival, I found my daughter sitting in the office. I asked her how she knew when to come and get the belt. She said, "Mom! I've been sitting here since they called you this morning!!" I was stunned! They kept my child out of class for two hours over a belt? It's not like her pants were falling down!! This really concerns me. Since when is  a belt reason enough to keep a child from learning? The school officials knew that I was bringing the belt, and yet they kept her out of class! Where does common sense compromise with policy regarding such a minor issue? I have had it with this mess!
