While I don't think that any girl younger than maybe 15 should be wearing thong underwear, I also don't think it's the school's business to be regulating this. I think that as long as the girls aren't flaunting what they're wearing underneath their clothes that this issue should not be addressed in school.
I remember reading about a similar situation in which a male member of the faculty of a school was upset that girls were wearing provocative underwear so he decided that he would reprimand the girls that dressing inappropriately. Problem was, the only way for him to be sure that the girls were breaking the "rules" was to inspect their underwear. Needless to say this staff member was severely reprimanded and probably fired.
What I'm trying to say is that the issue of rightness or wrongness shouldn't be decided by the school. This is clearly a situation that needs to be handled by the family of the child. And if for some strange reason the parents decide that their child should be allowed to wear what they want, then so be it.
Also realize that we're assuming that the child has reasonable, non-abusive parents. If the child has unfit parents then this will manifest itself in the child's behavior, and she'll do more than just wear sexy underwear.
