[quote=Anonymous]There was a period back in the 1990s when leading educators thought that uniforms would help with increasing academic performance at lower performing schools. This is why a lot of the East of the Park DCPS schools have uniforms, but the ones in Upper NW don’t. ACPS also adopted that philosophy for some of its schools and it’s one “traditional” academy. APS experimented with optional uniforms at one very high ESL school but the uniforms were unpopular with the students; so that didn’t last long at all.[/quote]
