public problems within the community.
Tue, Apr?, 2015at 11:11 AM
I am emailing you to as what was the procedure of you determining the new uniform policy?
We are proposing a change to the MS uniform policy. We would like spirit wear back for everyday.
What would be the the whole process to change the policy?
Thank you for your help.

Hi Alannah.
Thanks for your email first of all. I'm always happy to see young people and leaders like yourself access the
system to try to make it work better for them and their fellow students. So, to that end, I hope I can supply you
with some useful information to assist you in your goal/project.
There are many documents that get reviewed each school year by the school district's leadership - many of them
are Board of Education policies (sometimes by law such as the Anti-Bullying Policy & the Wellness Policy) and
some are just processes or documents that are important and need frequent review. There are two (2) that fall
into that latter category- the Student Code of Conduct (attached) and the Student Uniform Dress Code (below).
Both of these are reviewed annually and then reviewed and reapproved by the Board of Education (elected
governing officials). Honestly, your timing couldn't be better. These are due to be reviewed any week now and
then taken back to the board in May or June for approval. Here are two people you can contact who guide this
process. These are people you could email and possibly meet with in order to get plugged into the process in an
authentic way.

16. Who makes the Policy ?
The school board of education
makes the decision of wearing the
formal uniforms.
At the beginning of the school
year the leader of school districts
makes the decision.
The ideas from the leader of
districts gets sent to the School
Board of Education.
The uniform· policy gets reviewed
about annually, it gets thought
about every year.
17. Why was spirit wear
taken away?
We interviewed teachers on
why spirit wear was taken
away
People were wearing spirit
wear inappropriately
They also said students
weren't following school
rules.
We interviewed teachers on
why spirit wear was taken
away
20. Alternative policy #1
Students in the district of winton woods should
be allowed to
expressed
ourselves with
spirits wear with
uniform pants.
.: '.'<;e rr!@'J'.øi!ZI.·· ·...·..·· •·.. -a s
We should be able to
express our schools with spirit wear tops.
21. Alternative policy #2
WWMS should wear jeans
with polo shirts.
The jeans should be at finger
tip length.
The students can have holes
in their jeans but if it is
showing too much skin they
should cover it up.
L
24. Advantages
The 1st alternative policy
has the advantage of us
expressing ourselves. The
spirit wear will make all the
students look different
because we won't all be
wearing the same clothes.
ln the survey for students
and teachers it shows that it
helps show pride within the
school.
Í
25. Disadvantages
Some students might wear spirit wear
tops inappropriately. Which could lead to
problems.
Some students may get bullied because
of kids wearing uniform tops instead of
spirit wear tops.
Spirit wear ranges from $10-$15. These
could be to expensive for parents or
students.
26. Advantages Of Policy #2
WWMS can be diverse with wearing
jeans by having different colored jeans
verses the same 2 color pants.With the
uniform pants you can only wear khaki or
navy so the jeans will make a difference.
Student would have a choice of the two
colors to wear.
WWMS can show more style with ttiê
type of jeans we wear.
Both jeans and uniform have the same
style but with jeans you can wear different
colors.
We could express our self better with
.
Jeans.
L
27. Disadvantages policy #2
Students may wear ripped
jeans.Wearing the ripped jeans could
show things that are inappropriate.
The average cost of the jeans for
girls are $20-$30
The average cost of the jeans for boys
are $30-$40.The cost of the jeans could
be expensive for the parents or students
to buy.
28. Advantages Of 2nd
Alternative Policy
WWMS can be diverse with
wearing jeans by having different
colored jeans verses the same 2 color
pants.
WWMS can show more style with
the type of jeans we wear.
Both jeans and uniform have the
same style but with jeans you can
wear different colors.
With the uniform pants you can
only wear khaki or navy so the jeans
will make a difference.
29. Advantages Of 3rd
Alternative Policy
This can show our creativity
because having a certain outfit
could just show our peers our
personality.
lt will be more of a relaxed setting
because we all look different which
will allow students to focus better
on academics.
A relaxed setting will make a
positive impact by the focus of the
students.
30. Disadvantages of
- 3rd alternative
policy
The disadvantages of 3rd
alternative is that people will
get bullied because of what
they wear.
Some finance issues may
occur so some students
don't have clothes other than
the uniform to wear.
35. Student survey
92.11o/o of the students from last year
like the policy from last year better.
97.73% students dislike the current
uniform policy.
95.45% students said they would
support the decision in changing the
uniform policy.
90.91% of the students feel that the
uniform policy is too strict.

43. Conclusion of Teacher
Surveys
Teacher responses show that the
majority of teachers support the
current uniform policy. Some
teachers that I have talked to
personally want the uniform policy
to spirit wear everyday. Otherwise
the teachers really do not support
it.
Con
44. Advantages
Our proposed policy allows
students to express
themselves.
Our policy addresses the
issue of bullying.
According to the surveys,
students think spirit wear will
help bullying issues but
teachers do not think it will
help.
45. Disadvantages
Most students will wear spirit
wear tops inappropriately.
Students can get bullied
because they are wearing uniform
tops instead of spirit wear tops.
Some students may not be able
to wear spirit wear because it
might be too expensive for some
families.
The student that wear spirit
wear inappropriately will get
individual consequences. All
students will not have to suffer.
46. The Process
This policy is constitutional
because you have to go through
this amendment through the school
board of education.
The uniform policy is renewed
every year. ·
The leader of the district gives
their ideas then it is taken to the
School board of Education for
responses.
The School Board of Education
also uses the Anti- Bullying policy.
49. Who will individually be
influenced
The following people are people we may talk
to to support our policy further.
Teachers will be influenced by the strength
of the arguments we present.
The parents will support the uniform policy
change due to the argument that they might be
able to save money because the spirit wear can
be less than the uniforms.
50. Who will be influenced
governmental?
Our school's board of education
would influenced because they
would have to put the new uniform
policy in the handbooks. They
would have to make new
documentation of the new uniform
policy.
51. Who will individually be
influenced to be continued
The school board of education
will be influenced by the results of
students that want spirit wear
back.
Another group that would be
influenced could be the PTA. We
would meet with them and explain
to them our action and they could
help us reach out to the parents
and teachers.
52. Action Process
Involve the PTA and get their
support.Make a petition to take to
the school board.
Make a presentation of our
outcome to the school board to try
get the uniform policy changed.
53. Proposed Action
If the school board of education
does not approve our policy then
our next action will be to organize
a show of support. We will ask
everyone that supports to wear
spirit wear to the event.
Hopefully this will change their
minds if the original process does
not work.
