Friday was our first "free dress day" and I must say I'm excited to see the uniforms back today. At recess, it's much easier for me to see my kids' faces when everyone is dressed similarly. Friday was a sea of pink tutus and party dresses. I couldn't tell where my class was! Another teacher observed that kids look younger in street clothes. I think that's true. I would've loved wearing a uniform in school. Seems like it would make picking out an outfit each morning a breeze. Also, those glittery light-up shoes are a major distraction.
In Ireland, all of the kids wear uniforms regardless of whether they attend a private or public school. This helped balance out the socioeconomic statuses of children at school. I love uniforms.
