2010: Kilt Accommodation For High School Students

In 2010, WSO supported Alberta’s Hamish Jacobs, 19, in his bid to wear a formal kilt to his high school graduation ceremony. The WSO sent a letter of support for the young man to the Superintendent of Westwind School Division.

With crucifixes, yarmulkes and turbans all accommodated in schools across Canada, there was no reason the Scottish kilt should be treated any differently.
