Description
Petitioners are mother and son. During the summer months of 1965, the 15-year-old minor, hereafter designated as "petitioner," grew a beard which was neat in appearance and trimmed regularly. On September 8 he enrolled at Polytechnic High School in Riverside, one of the secondary schools within the respondent-boards jurisdiction. He was suspended shortly thereafter solely for the reason that he refused to shave his beard as required by the boards "Good Grooming Policy" adopted on September 20, 1965. He then attended a private school for the balance of the 1965-1966 school year where he was permitted to wear his beard. An appeal initiated in March 1966 to the board of education proved unsuccessful.
