[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's a good question, and I don't have an answer. Thank you.

I guess the school needs to fully embrace changes that could benefit the entire school, like sem, but drag their feet on others (like, potentially uniforms for example). That seems like too simplistic an answer. [/quote]

Why drag their feet on uniforms.  It screams 1990s inner city school, when I assume that Hardy wants to project a more inclusive and modern image.[/quote]

The uniform thing cracks me up. In the '70s & '80s, anyone in a uniform was a private school kid. So [b]then the public schools started phasing them[/b] in, and simultaneously the private schools started phasing them out.

Uniform, no uniform, doesn't matter -- as long as we can tell which kids are which it's all good! (That last sentence was sarcasm, in case it's not evident.)[/quote]

The point is that [b]some[/b] public schools started phasing them it, where they believed it would help bring order to chaotic school situations (along with tough disciplinary measures).  Hardy uniforms are a vestige of that era, and perhaps of those problems.  One would think that the school would want to move on, unless in fact the uniforms are still deemed necessary to instill discipline.[/quote]
