The point is the school board should have revised their current dress code to include pants that fit at the waist and no middriff bearing or low cut shirts. Then they should have enforced the dress code the way they plan to enforce this uniform. <BR/><BR/>This uniform is supposed to promote unity in our schools but the jr. high lets numerous students get by with many uniform violations while bringing down the hammer on others for having the tails of their shirts sticking out. Case in point: while dropping my son off last week I saw a girl going in the doors wearing brown sweat pants with Elk City printed in white down the leg.... my son took a picture of her around lunch time. She wore them all day with no trouble. <BR/><BR/>Looking nice or adorable has no relevance here. The school board overstepping their boundaries by telling me how to dress my children is an issue. The fact that I now have to spend my hard earned money on items I do NOT want to purchase is an issue. The fact that my overweight child is now upset every morning before school because he looks hideous is an issue.<BR/><BR/>Grandview tried to make a "free day" they were going to allow kids to buy a homecoming tshirt and if you bought that shirt you could wear it on Friday with jeans. If you didn't buy the shirt you had to wear the uniform. How is that fair? Only kids with $ to buy a school shirt get the benefit of wearing jeans? My family has money, I could have bought all of my kids that shirt but the point is that every child in the school system should be treated the same. After being confronted the school changed their mind and made it a "school spirit" day and everyone was allowed to wear any brown, white or elks tshirt with jeans on that Friday. Not being fair to every single child in our school system is an issue.<BR/><BR/>Lets stop talking about how cute and adorable these kids are in these uniforms and start talking about the real issues at hand.<BR/><BR/>Hitler's boys youth army looked cute in their matching uniforms too. That wasn't the issue.criscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15605287207875620769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8250143336701750744.post-38325668721322764422008-12-17T16:47:00.000-08:002008-12-17T16:47:00.000-08:00i can't imagine a school jumping from a to z witho...i can't imagine a school jumping from a to z without hitting b,c,d, e...why not enforce the dress code? why not ask how school officer larry whitely is dropping the ball saying that "the uniform makes the man" but he can't make school children pull their pants up? even with uniforms they are finding ways around wearing them correctly.

Some parenst would send their child to school in their pajamas with no bath and hair not combed. I haven't seen any children like that yet this year. the kids all look great. I would like to see more of a variety of colors for the shirts. My oldest daughter accesorized with jewelry, shiny belts, and different colored shoes. I think it was a good thing. It teaches children that they have to folow rules thata re set for them. There isn't really a way to get passed it. I think it helps with the teasing of the children about who dont have the name brand clothes and if they are 'boy' or 'girl' shoes or if one child says the other one looks stupid. They can't do that very well if they look just like em.

When I went to school here, not so long ago, they were strict on enforcing the dress code. I really thing that's all it would have took to get the kids to dress right! There are still going to be the kids w/the named brand clothes & cheaper brands and the uniforms aren't going to change that some think they're better then others just because of a name. The gang problems are still going to be here, though not serious like the larger cities they are here, and a dress code isn't going to change that. I hate the dress code because it does cause us to have to buy 2 wardrobes instead of one! and I think there should be more colors added, I'm not putting my 6 year old in a white shirt!! The school board obviously doesn't care about what the parents think or they would've gave us a real say, or vote! I would be happier if I had proof that the majority of the parents wanted this!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8250143336701750744.post-14970387312201085012008-07-31T19:44:00.000-07:002008-07-31T19:44:00.000-07:00I don't like them, never did.

The genius bar makes Motorola look like some fly-by-night construction company that took your money and ran. <BR/><BR/>Buy things that work. Buy from companies that back up their products. Motorola does not. They refused to fix a $200 phone that was clearly defective. I talked to so many different people my head was spinning, but the verdict was clear. They had my money and would now be happy to take more of it.<BR/><BR/>My iPhone had 3 little pin-prick sized bubbles and a small discoloration in the screen. Did not affect the phone's performance at all. Took it to the Genius Bar and was given a new phone no questions asked.

I think that after the first year of it, they will probably not be as strict about them. As for all the people who are refusing to support fundraisers b/c of this you are just hurting your kids. The money for the fundraisers go for improvements to the schools, and remember it was not the teachers who voted for the dress code. People are mad, I get it, but going against the schools and not supporting them is hurting your kids worse than the uniforms they have to wear, isn't it?
