In the latter schools, as long as one of the underneath layers has the logo, the child is considered to be wearing the uniform.Mrs. S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14649082640953110457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3089133433897831130.post-62145836630779043392010-12-20T20:44:06.749+02:002010-12-20T20:44:06.749+02:00I agree with Galit about the fact that there is no...I agree with Galit about the fact that there is no getting around the laundry. But for this year, I warned the daughter who puts EVERYTHING in the laundry that she has to wear her uniform skirt at least 3 times before getting it washed. Her shirts, though, are washed after each wearing. The logos are not yet required on the shirts, though they are on the sweaters and sweatshirts in high school. I don't like it b/c I don't care for writing on shirts, and the logos add about $5 to the cost of each piece. As Batya said, that can add up.Ariella's bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409352047101582583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3089133433897831130.post-53553756628410023442010-12-19T11:44:04.321+02:002010-12-19T11:44:04.321+02:00Rachel - Good point about the accessories!
Ilana-...Rachel - Good point about the accessories!<br /><br />Ilana-Davita - The solution is to have the kids pick out their clothes the night before. Of course, this is something we did anyway, but I was surprised that uniforms made it even more necessary!<br /><br />Galit - LOL! It's true! Somehow everything always revolves around the laundry... :-)<br /><br />Batya - I agree. Denim skirts go with just about everything. The question is what to do with all the other skirts, which don't necessarily match the shirts. It seems silly to go buy new skirts - when one has plenty of nice skirts hanging in one's closet...Mrs. S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14649082640953110457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3089133433897831130.post-40936351802309775172010-12-18T18:24:11.788+02:002010-12-18T18:24:11.788+02:00My daughter hasn't complained that her 2nd gra...My daughter hasn't complained that her 2nd grader is having trouble with it. I think that most of the colors look fine with denim skirts. <br />Now she has lots of sweatshirts with the logo. This first year is pretty expensive. I can imagine that it's a burden for family with lots of kids in school.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3089133433897831130.post-69600284595705560232010-12-18T00:36:22.669+02:002010-12-18T00:36:22.669+02:00I would have *never* thought that there would be t...I would have *never* thought that there would be these problems with uniforms!
