School policies, rules, and regulations refer to the guidelines and expectations set by a school or educational institution to ensure a safe, respectful, and productive environment for students, staff, and faculty. They are designed to maintain order, promote positive behavior, and outline the responsibilities of all involved.

A netizen shared his opinion and thoughts regarding some students who are opposing and protesting the regulations and policies of their school.

According to a Facebook post by Jose Enrico V. Libunao, many students today are complaining about the required haircut policy in schools.

In reality, especially when they start working, they need to follow policies and regulations, and failing to do so can lead to being dismissed. In this world, not all personal preferences can be followed.

“Kung iniiyakan ninyo ang pagsunod sa school regulations gaya ng tamang gupit, I can’t wait to see how devastated you will be once you enter the real world and realize na HINDI kayo ang masusunod.”

“Pagsusuutin pa rin kayo ng ID. Papapasukin on time. Pagdadamitin ng maayos. At sasabihang magpagupit ng tama alinsunod sa mga patakaran ng kumpanya. Sounds familiar ba? Surprise!”

“Facts don’t care about your Feelings,” aniya.

In the Philippine school setup, the haircut policy typically refers to rules set by schools regarding the appropriate length, style, and grooming of students’ hair, especially for male students. These policies are usually implemented to maintain discipline, uniformity, and a neat, professional appearance in the school environment.

The purpose of the haircut policy is to prevent distractions, promote equality, and foster an atmosphere of respect within the school community. While these policies are generally seen as standard, their enforcement can vary from school to school, with some institutions being stricter than others.

Libunao added further explanation in the comment section of his post.

“Sa eskwela pag di ka sumunod sa rules, mababaw ang parusa. Principal’s office. Guidance. Sermon. Mababang grade. Yun na yun.”

“Sa opisina, try mo gawin yun. Ang ending mo kaltas ng sahod, suspension, o kaya sisante ka. Worst case, walang tatanggap sayo. Either maghanap ka ng kumpanya na maluwag o magtayo ka ng sarili mong negosyo. Until then, you have to follow the rules.”

“In reality, SHELTERED ang mga bata sa eskwela. That is nothing compared to the harshness and cutthroat nature of the real world. Kaya kung diyan pa lang eh tupi na sila, may problema tayo.”
