If the dress code is gonna be a problem, just make everyone wear a school uniform and be done with it.

School uniforms are a waste of time.

I taught in a really low socio-economic area for a few years. The uniforms served 2 purposes:

  1. Stop gang affiliation shit
  2. Inexpensive for families on very, very tight budgets.

This is what I don't trust will happen. Jostens or any number of other shitty companies will happily sell overpriced uniforms that cost hundreds of dollars and partner with school districts to ensure a captive market to pay their insane markups

  1. Two approved colors, red and blue, are generally gang colors.

  2. No, they're not. You generally can't buy then second hand. I've never seen uniforms at a resale store.

Huh? Second hand uniform sales are massive in the UK. Every school has one. Maybe not in the states? Don't know why..

It was definitely a thing where I worked in Los Angeles county.

[-] sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Both of those points do not match the experience I had.
