A district wide school uniform has been proposed in the Indian River School District in Selbyville.
The new standardized dress code, proposed for schools with grades K-12 is designed to relieve peer pressure, and to improve school image. Both parents and students have mixed feelings about the proposed change, which will include Polo Shirts and slacks.
Frankford Elementary School principal, Duncan Smith thinks if the changes go ahead as proposed, it would be well received. “If the parents knew all they had to do was go to Wal-Mart and buy a few Polo Shirts and khaki pants, I think they’d be happy,” he said.
Donald Hattier, head of Indian River District’s uniform committee says he is looking to provide a ‘level playing field’ for students, adding, “You’re supposed to be going to school to learn, not to see how much of a fashion show you can put on.”

Sixth grade students from Reagan Middle School, located in Dixon, Illinois, USA recently completed a course in screen printing, which uses colourful paints and other materials to create images on Blank T-Shirts. After the course was complete, students had to model their creations at a student fashion show. While most of the students were nervous, all of them were very proud of the artwork they had created.
For their T-Shirts, the students had to create a piece of art that showcased their personality. Some students created images of hockey sticks and footballs, while others drew microphones to show off their love of singing. While each of the shirts were different, the sense of pride the students felt was the same. Kristina Lindahl, a student teacher from the University of Northern Illinois who helped organise the event said of the students, “They weren’t allowed to use commercial logos. It had to be something special to them, that described their personal identity.”
For their part, the students had a lot of fun creating and showing off who they were. “It was scary … just being the last person … I’ve never done this before. But it was really fun. I’m glad Mrs. Thompson and Ms. Lindahl let us do it this year,” said student Zachary Harden.

The BBC reports that a t-shirt worn by a 10 year old student at the Portfield School in Poole was banned from the school because it wasn’t politically correct. The t-shirt that Sam Rodwell wore to school that day had a message that said, “Autism – It’s No Mystery, It’s Mercury”. Sam Rowell is one of the 64 students at the school with Autism and the school specializes in education for Autistic children.
School officials feel that the shirt is not politically correct and may cause disruption. The boy wanted to wear the t-shirt outside on the playground but was approached by one of the staff and was made to change. Sam Rowell and his father, David Rowell are very upset about this situation and feel that his son should have been able to wear this specific shirt because Sam has been tested for and found to have mercury toxicity. Sam has worn other t-shirts such as these in the past without a problem and his father also feels that this shows inconsistency in the school’s policies.
