hahaha that's almost like the dress code for the school i just transferred to but we have shorter skirts and no forest green. (ew..forest green and navy?!?!)
anyway my advice is DON'T wear the pants cause that would be gross.
your lucky..your shoe guidelines are WAY better. we can't wear boots or heels or anything. i think you should wear UGGS since YOU CANN!!
we have the thing on fridays too lol where you can wear a shirt that has your school on it. it's like..they think they're giving us freedom but they're really not...lol.
and for your hair mix it up with straight one day then curls.
How would feel about this,while your kid going for their classes or going to shopping , and for his/her saftey movement /montitor a chip can be plant in his cloth .How the kid shall accept it. community what does feel over it?
It will be a cold day in hell before I would chip my child like an animal. How far are people/govt. willing to go with this idea? At first it will be for the "safety" of your child, then the elderly, and then you for medical or banking. I have raised my children to know right from wrong so I don't worry about them skipping school or not going where they say they are going to go.
the band im in dances like a traditional HBCU band so movement and washability are a must school colors blue, grey, black.
We got our uniforms from the Band Shoppe catalog. I don't believe the website has as much on it, weird I know.
I would advise this place because everyone said we had the coolest uniforms out of all of the Drum Majors. Our band director always joked that when we were marching together, practicing our salute, we looked like band assassins. :))
Here is the website, and good luck!

The movement to require students to wear uniforms is taking hold throughout some parts of the country. What are the potential benefits and problems or concerns associated with having school uniforms at middle school level?
Benefits are that students focus on studying rather than the latest fashions. It is also cheaper for the parents. the problems may be that the students want to be their individual person and the only way they know how to do that is by their clothes. However uniforms can also require students to become individual by their personality than their clothes.
The Oracle - School uniforms dangerously limit students' individualism
School uniforms are becoming increasingly popular in public schools across the country, but the debate about whether these uniforms are achieving the desired unity needs to be questioned.
Pinellas County Superintendent Julie Janssen is pushing to require all county students in grades K-8 to wear school uniforms as part of a package of reforms.
It seems the district wants the uniforms to give off the air of a more organized, smarter school system. Some of Janssen's proposed measures, like uniforms and signed contracts with parents, are aimed at increasing parental involvement in schooling.
However, requiring uniforms in Pinellas County or any other county teaches students a dangerous lesson because it opposes their freedom of expression, which is a fundamental staple supported by the U.S. Constitution.
Not only that, but it may not even be effective.
In "The School Uniform Movement and What It Tells Us About American Education: A Symbolic Crusade," University of Missouri sociologist David Brunsma found no empirical relationship between school uniforms and academic achievement in his 8-year study.
