Constantly talking about tznius doesn’t help the problem. And like many others mentioned, rebuking a person will likely have the opposite effect. I think the only way to enforce tznius is for teachers to infuse students with a love of yiddishkeit. When you love someone you want to do things that make them happy. So too here. Instill a love of being Jewish and kids will want to follow halachos. In addition, when tznius is actually being discussed, it’s the halachos that should be focused on rather than the sensitivities. If kids hear an extreme view said to be halacha they not only won’t follow the stringency but will assume that actual halacha is also the extreme. I am not saying not to discuss sensitivities at all. But it should be clearly differentiated from what’s halacha.
