[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our school requires black pants and white shirts for the winter concert and band performance. As a mother of boys, I would never buy black pants but for this one night event. Instead, it would be easier if they could wear khakis since we already have those---and I feel like most families would already have khakis rather than black pants.

I *feel* (since that's what you asked) like black pants with white shirts is the standard and has been since the beginning of time. Unless your school is requiring you to purchase a specific brand and style, this approach is used all over the US.

I also wonder if high FARMS schools, they may not necessarily have this policy (since many seem concerned about affordability).  I think that the dress code would be a school decision and a principal knows what is best for that school's students and families.

[b]I also donate my son's black pants to Interfaith Clothing. Hopefully other parents would do the same.[/b][/quote]

Our school maintains a collection of donated black pants, white shirts, black shoes.  My kids don't dress up much so during the years DS was in school band he just wore the band black pants/shoes for the occasional dress up occasion.   DD already wears black pants all the time so not an issue for her.[/quote]
