25 “Dumb School Rules” People Say They Had To Follow

If you know any kids or remember what you were like growing up, you probably understand why we need rules, especially in school. However, not all rules make sense. There are a lot of dumb school rules that we make kids follow.

I went to a Catholic school, so we had even more rules to follow than my friends who went to public school. The dumbest rule, in my opinion, was having to keep our hair short, and we weren’t allowed to have facial hair.

In hindsight, maybe it wasn’t that bad compared to some of the dumb school rules that people in this AskReddit thread had to follow.

What’s the dumbest rule you had in school?
