Students disciplined for out-of-code shoes

I believe that Mrs. Webb and all of the Youngstown City School employees should be required to wear the uniforms according to "their requirements"! First of all, the dress code requirements state white and blue polos. Unfortunately, at Chaney the freshman are only allowed to wear white polos and the juniors must only wear blue. Go into any department store and try to purchase just a blue polo. Not possible. Maybe the staff should try and get to know the children a little better, then saying "Well that's a freshmen, because he is in white." One child from Chaney was sent home because she had five buttons on her shirt instead of three. Where is the education? Youngstown schools wonder why the charter schools are obtaining most of their students. The charter schools have more respect for the children. They teach the children not only how to respect the next person and work with them by not just throwing them to the street.But they receive all the education they require. When will Youngstown City schools educate the children and not worry about a little bit of white, green, or pink on their shoes? Rumor has it now that they are going to try and stop the children from where dickey pants? Give me a brake! Maybe they should worry about whether they have enough books in the school or better computers to teach the children. Or even some extra teachers to teach!
