[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't had time to read all the replies, but I will say, I attended a well-known private school in the area. 
We were told specifically, when we are wearing our uniforms or a school shirt, etc we are representing our school and are expected to behave in a way that sets an example for our school 
You put that sticker on your car and you are representing the school and are expected to behave. 
How tough is that? 
Grow up people![/quote]

Definitely. Adults should shape their moral code based on the bumper stickers they display. Because if your kid goes to an expensive school, you should be a good person. But if your kid doesn't go to an expensive school, or if you forgot to put the school sticker on your car, then it's okay to behave badly, because there aren't deeper reasons not to. I sure am glad my kid didn't get into Sidwell. I'm going to have three martinis before I drive him to kindergarten tomorrow. Wahoo![/quote]

I'm sure PP didn't mean to provide you with an opportunity to twist his words. PP remembers being admonished that he was representing his school when in public. Of course this is true whether you wear a uniform or not. I am sure he knows that and his point is : behave in a way that will not be a poor representation of the school, period.

A friend of mine is HS was one of six. Her father had a poem framed right next to the light switch as you went out the front door . If you looked to turn out the light, you would see it every day you left the house . " Insert last name " as title . It said something about family honor and reputation being carried in one's name  and that anyone leaving that front door would be wise to remember that fact . Good advice.[/quote]
