As hair length in no way affects his ability to learn, I see no issue with why it has to be cut. Girl's are allowed hair at a length of their choosing so boys should not be any different.

As long as it does not pose any risk to him or anyone else (such as getting caught in any PE equipment or set on fire in the science lab as a happened to a girl at my school which was especially bad as she was partial to a looooot of hairspray) and is tied back to avoid any issues why should he have to cut it.

Also, Arista - why is he a "BRAT"?
