The American Civil Liberties Union has dropped its federal lawsuit against Indian Land Elementary School's dress policy affecting more than 850 students. District officials say the one year pilot has improved discipline and reduced peer pressure with near universal compliance. ACLU attorney cites rights concerns but non pursuit due to time constraints and a judge ruling on alternative schooling during the case.
