    If uniforms are absolutely necessary make everyone where the same thing. Pants and shorts for all.

      This is how the schools are here in Arizona. Uniforms, but pants and shorts for all the students. Girls can also wear skirts, but really its just shorts that look like skirts.

        If you were curious, there’s a name for those: skorts! They were very popular when I was a kid.

            Very common in the kids section of the store, since little girls are just as likely as any other kid to climb over and under things.

      The standard child school uniform should be a michelin man costume.
