Lost in Translation

   I won't get a chance to see Monday's presentation of the Strategic
   Planning Process Outcomes to the District 281 School Board until
   sometime Thursday via Cable Channel 22.
   One thing I'll be watching for is that School Uniforms recommendation
   that came out of the blue at the wrap up meeting. In the [1]published
   document, however, it says "Establish a dress code." That's a
   (clothes) horse of a different color. Both uniforms and a dress code
   may be driven by the same concerns, but these solutions are quite
   different.
   I'm wondering who changed this and why. Even if I am not very
   convinced about uniforms in the 21st century, I am willing to hear the
   arguments directly.
