Shirts and ties, or perhaps something more casual like polo shirts. This isn't the 50's anymore, children are maturing much faster than they used to. Let them make some decisions for themselves. And I didn't say dress codes were a bad thing, I said STRICT dress codes are a bad thing.quigonjamesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669198373869931550.post-37140901704545178082009-07-10T21:06:54.155-04:002009-07-10T21:06:54.155-04:00Dress codes are a good thing.
