I liked wearing uniforms to school. One less thing to think about. Us girls wore shorts under our skirts because boys will be boys. ha ha ha

I sincerely hope and pray that Pius X has the strength and stamina to KEEP UP THE FIGHT FOR THE CHILDREN.

This current fad to believe that sex can be changed is right out of rogue Science Fiction or really, really stupid people.

Where are these insane people coming from?? I’d expect this garbage out of parents with kids in public school but Catholic? Why are they sending them to a Catholic school if they don’t believe in God’s word? Look for the ACLU to jump in on this ‘ruckus’ that she says she didn’t want to cause.

Not Catholic but does the diocese require all female parishioners to wear dresses to church?

True. But why not uniforms? Girls in my catholic school never wore pants ever!!!!!! The uniform was a jumper for 8 years and a skirt for high school. This was the late 80’s.

Clearly a WTF Moment!

These parents must be members of the Pelousy, Xiden, Francis satanic communist Catholic wing...

“A Catholic school teaching Catholic beliefs. What?????? s/off”

I am a graduate of public schools and a private college with two degrees. I never wore a school uniform in my life. When my kids wished to enter a Catholic high school to be with friends and the school was accredited, I told the school we wanted them to enter but not be uniformed. This was acceptable to the school when I pulled out the check book for their entrance fees and my kids successfully used the facility for two years until I and my family PCSed away. Fair trade...I paid them and they educated my kids.

Uniforms are a preference, not a need. My kids, like myself, were successful in school without them.

I don’t see the need of them as it limits the discovery parts of the education by placing the students in a box with the rest of the tools and the kids become tolerant of mediocre learning success. And then every widgit looks the same and carries forward to a non-challenged mediocre life, hopefully.

Kind of like the cattle in the corral. They get fed and watered for a while and they produce milk or meat. Ever wondered if cows are bored or wanted something more? Humans shouldn’t be limited or put out like an assembly line. Let them have their independence and depiction of our world. They become more independent and eager to go forward with life rather than exist with asking why and how and not getting just because or held back to be controlled. The world’s been full of them that think this way.

They could use better terminology. “Gender” always refers to words, never people.

“Sex” is the word they were looking for. Girls and Boys are different sexes. Never use leftist terminology.

Uniforms help self-conscious adolescents deal with each other as equals because they are not divided by something as definitionally-“superficial” as clothing. Cliques form largely on the basis of external appearance, with the kids whose parents buy them expensive, trendy clothes looking down on the kids whose parents don’t, or can’t.

I attended schools with uniforms, and without, and I think putting kids in uniforms would be the single most effective reform measure for public schools. But it will never happen since parents want their kid to express their individuality by wearing the exact same thing as every other kid.

So a single family pulled their kids out of a school because they don’t like the reasoning behind a school policy. And this is considered newsworthy why? We’ll, I think we all know why.

Uniforms were great. A day has 24 hours....plenty of hours to wear other clothing.

“...has prompted a family to pull their kids out right before the start of the year.”

How can the parents pull their kids out if their kids weren’t in school?

BTW...screw the silly payers.
