[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If a large enough bloc of Mann/Key/Hyde parents insisted on reversing the uniform policy, it could work.  Hardy could quickly become a small darling of NW.  But as long as the face of the school is OOB in need of discipline, that can't happen.[/quote]
You know, I'm starting to wonder whether I would want to send my kid to school with kids whose parents are overwhelmed by their unresearched and unverified assumptions about Hardy based on what they think public school uniforms [i]must[/i] mean.  That is, they can't see the difference between what is [i]really[/i] going on at the school and what they believe everyone [i]thinks[/i] about the school.  It might be best if all you folks who are suspicious about uniforms don't send your kids to the school because I'm not sure I would want my child to associate with children whose parents don't teach them to do research and engage in critical thinking.

Do the research and check the reasons why the introduction of public school uniforms in urban schools became an educational fad in the late 80s and into the 90s.
