Students and Parents Against New Uniform Policy
We, the students and parents of those attending DeBakey High School, condemn the PTA's decision to implement new uniforms and would like to negotiate alternatives for various reasons.DeBakey High Scho... continue reading »
"It is absurd for students to have to purchase more expensive polos when they can simply buy from other vendors and attach on a logo. Monopolizing the system at the expense of students is not okay either; the PTA should try to fund raise by other means ins"
"we dont deserve this"
"The fact that I have to pay so much for a polo with little quality is appaling, especially since I know people who are not as financially stable as others. The mere sale of a simple DeBakey logo patch would be fine or more understandable or re-implementin"
"ridiculous."
"This new uniform policy is absolutely ridiculous...and I don't appreciate the school forcing it down our throats by saying that EVERYTHING has to have a "DeBakey logo". The school is extorting money from the students and their families."
"this is a disgrace to the seniors who have waited four years to have those "free dress" days. Now they have been taken away because of this new policy."
"It is unfair for existing students, especially seniors who are only going to use the uniform for hardly 10 months, to purchase even more clothing to comply with the new policy."
"I know having a uniform may make the students look more presentable, but my parents and I find it ridiculous to have to pay for more clothes when we're only going to wear them for 10 months, and then never wear them again. Please reconsider the uniform po"
"i understand the reason for the uniform changes but it is unfair to the students. these changes were made by people who do not know the current economic and personal situations each student is in. i myself have no problem with the new uniforms but what ab"
"I wish the PTA could make better decisions.."
"the uniforms are unfair and expensive."
"This dress code change makes absolutely no sense. Making this dress code change puts a financial strain on families. There have never been any extreme cases of infridgements of the current dress code. This stricter dress code is unnecessary and just cause"
"Umm,,, the cost of these "new" uniforms is costlier than the regular ones at jcpenny, macys, or anywhere, else,, just for a logo.. if all u want is a logo,, give it to us so we can sew it on. smh... i dont see why yall are carin bout appearances,, we make"
"What kind of authority do PTAs have in our schools? Students at Debakey High School are being forced to buy their uniforms from the PTA. They cost 14 dollars for a shirt whose quality is poor at best. It is see-through and is made of a poor fabric. The re"
"Enforcing a new and more strict dress code will not change anything. As far as students who choose to break the dress code, this new policy will not just "outstandingly" stop the trend of those who break the dress code. Secondly, instead of hosting meetin"
"This new uniform policy is ridiculous. Why pay $18.00 for a simple polo with a logo when you can get it somewhere else much cheaper?"
"New Uniforms shouldn't be enforced for seniors!"
