[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't like uniforms in general, as it seems like imposed conformity to me. On top of thst, my pre k kid has to wear khaki pants. They stain easily, aren't warm enough for the walk to school in cold weather, and the boys run through the knees in two months.[/quote This!!!! People can debate uniforms for high school but there is nothing more ridiculous than dressing a 3 or 5 year old in khakis every day. What is this, the 1950s? Khakis and dress pants on little kids are cute for weddings, that's it. The best idea for elementary is a cute school t-shirt that is optional but encouraged on special "spirit" days, field trips and the like. Think about what the point is. The point is to foster some school spirit and togetherness. Like in college when you voluntarily wore school colors to an event or game. Uniforms are totally over the top at any age but especially elementary. [/quote]
