[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While I don't agree with either, at least the short sleeve shirts are more realistic.  Although, are they gonna have a minimum sleeve length, or would cap sleeves be okay?

[b]The shorts that go down to your knees is just ridiculous though.  [/b]I don't wear shorts that long, ever.  I certainly wouldn't expect a middle schooler to either.

I think this will just cause more problems and distractions for students and teachers with trying to patrol this.  If their problem is all the work the current dresscode is causing, this certainly isn't going to help.[/quote]

Wear slacks or jeans.   Most adults don't wear shorts to work.   It's OK for kids to perceive school as a place where more conservative dress is normal.  Save the shorts for playing after school and on weekends. [/quote]

There is not a chance in hell I would force either my son or daughter to wear jeans or pants to school, in June when it's 90+ degrees outside, to prepare them for working in 10 years.  I think they'll be able to grasp and understand appropriate workplace attire when they're a little closer to actually having a fulltime job.[/quote]

It's not to prepare them for work later on.  It's to help instill the idea of respect for the school place now.  I grew up here and always wore long pants of some sort to school -- and back then they were not always air conditioned like they are today.   It's not torture or something. [/quote]
