[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Friendship charter schools also "require" the logo embroidered shirts, which are $12 each. I put "require" in quotes because while this "requirement" is on the school's literature, other parents told me that a non-embroidered shirt (which Wal Mart sells for less than $5) was ok and since school started, I have noticed many kids (including my own) in plain shirts. My $.02: the embroidered shirts are an unnecessary expense for families. A simple uniform of commonly available clothes is fine, but the schools need to have a large selection of free uniform compliant clothes for kids in need. Punishing kids for this is ridiculous.[/quote] Ugh - if the school is going to require the embroidered shirt when they know the population they serve is low income they either need to be providing the shirt or providing a very low cost embroider shirt to parents.
