I could expect crap like that in the military, but that's overboard for a public school. I would have been up in arms.

I went to a pretty gangster high school, and my last two years we had a lot of changes to improve the quality of the school, including a pretty extreme change in staff. By senior year we actually had to wear a lanyard with our ID on it at all times.
I had to do that too in the military. There was a name for it, like a fashion show or something. I was at a training command at the time, so it was unreasonably reasonable, but on deployment in absolute insanity.
