"I have spent a lot of money on pricey shirts that my child likes. Now, I have to spend even more money on shirts that she doesn't like while she could be using last year's shirts. In short, this new policy is robbing hard-earned money from those families "
"I agree with everyone. It's unfair to make student who have only one more year, or even 2 more years at DeBakey suddenly spend 100-150$ on the new uniforms just so we can wear them for ONE/TWO YEAR. :|"
"Navy, white, and "DeBakey" blue shirts found elsewhere should be allowed at school regardless of whether or not the shirts have the DeBakey logo on them."
"Stupid."
"x.x"
"this new rule is soooo unfair"
"I'm not against the uniforms but the cost of buying them. At least give us one year to transiton."
"The ground by which this was passed is saddening. For something this wide of change, more persons should of been informed. Little information was released on it, and students & parents were not allowed a chance to dissent. Further, to monopolize the d"

"Aren't the academic results more important than what the students are required to wear? Considering that a relatively strict uniform policy is already in place, I don't see the necessity of an even more costly dress code. Please consider the status of man"
"This is cruel."
"The school should be more focused on academics, not raising money. This is ridiculous and completely inconsiderate to those with a low income."
"This policy is completely ridiculous and unnecessary (especially for the upcoming juniors)!"
