Hello and how are you? I have heard rumors that the board is putting in uniforms in Walton County public schools.I do not approve of that. i think students should be able to express themselves putting them in uniforms just dulls their personalilies. that is how they show their personalilites and now they will not be able to. i have done research on school uniform and they are not the solution to our problems they only make them worse!!it will make kids hate school even more than they already do. most kids who are old enough to drop out will. would y'all like to be the reason why we will have so many drop outs and stupid peole in this country because you would not let students express themselves? And alot of people can not afford uniforms this will cause some problems as well. i think that y'all should reafd this and take it in to consideration. thanks Tiffany Parker
