“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.
