[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are at Brooks. My boys loved the uniforms and my husband and I felt they were super easy. We could get the uniforms at Target or Old Navy and if we wanted nicer polos J. Crew or Lands End when sales. We would gift our nice condition items to the uniform closet and we would take hand me downs from the uniform closet. It was available at all the back to school/open houses and PTA events. I understand that the principal is not a fan of uniforms and that the teachers say it is a clean laundry and financial situation with lower income kids. However, I was an administrator in public schools for years and I had never heard of any parents complain about the uniform. In fact they pushed for them. So I don't know if it is a NoVA thing to be against uniforms or what. [/quote]

In the US most suburban districts never adopted uniforms. They only became a trend in urban public school districts in the 90s and 00s in the US and Quebec.  Traditionally American public schools eschewed uniforms, just like most European countries, excluding the UK. [/quote]
