[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can't we get back to the real issues facing Hardy, like the cell phone towers? Come one people, stay on-topic with the troll post de jure.

You uniform people crack me up.

But wouldn't a dress code make more sense in the interest of encouraging freedom of expression?  Uniforms are so militaristic.  With a dress code, parents could still force their kids to wear a uniform, or they would have the leeway to tweak it a bit if they wanted. [/quote]

Hardy does not have uniforms. Hardy has a dress code. The school dress code gives a range of options for tops (colors and styles: polos, T-shirts and shirts. No tanks) . Bottoms have to be khaki but freedom of shape, long, bermuda, skirt, anything as long as no higher than 1 inch from knee and no lower than the panty line. And no hoods inside the school.

To me it sounds so reasonable and right![/quote]

Well, the school website says it is a "uniform" policy.  But, the way you're describing it, it's a very controlled dress code with uniform elements.  If parents don't like it, I guess they could send their kids to private school instead...most of which also which have uniforms.[/quote]
