[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I urge you to consult other boy parents in your kid’s class. While they circulated guidance to parents, the reality is most parents opted for khakis with a navy blazer or a navy or gray suit. Only a small minority put their boys in white suits (and they were Hispanic).

Poll the boy moms before you buy anything. [/quote]

Op here — the white suit directive came from the head of the religious Ed program. The other boy mom I know already asked if this was firm and she said yes and passed along some Amazon picks. Sigh![/quote]

I’d call their bluff and if the head of religious Ed says something, I would have a conversation that goes like this “Father, Sister Mary Patricia has said that Larlo may not receive the Sacrament of Holy Communion because it is not in our budget to buy him a one-time-use white suit”.  There is zero religious obligation to wear any particular item of clothing. Clean, neat, no sneakers if you can afford to buy a pair of other shoes.[/quote]
