Yes Rob they do another reason I decided not to live in the area for the middle school..Its just a personal thing for me I dont want my kids wearing certain color clothes, and pants etc...some people dont mind and of course that is fine too...
My son will be going to the new Marvin Ridge Middle..yes they have a dress code but no Uniforms etc.....
Well, I wouldnt' call Weddington's dress code a uniform exactly, but it is much stricter than most of the other schools in the area. Students cannot wear jeans and must wear certain colors (T-shirts are ok as long as they are the right color.) No insignias of any kind unless it is the school's shirt.
I found dress codes and uniforms a wonderful idea. It saved time in the morning and kept me from yelling about what they put on T-shirts and khaki's is a dress down day for my sons. Everyday, they have to wear shirt, tie, blazer, dress pants, and oxford type shoes. My 11 year old looses his blazer at least once a month. I'm loving this idea. Being from the inner city, some type of uniform is required for all the public schools so I guess this is not new to me. Plus it saves a heck of a lot of money in not having to worry about brand names.
my son is a jeans kinda kid, and doesnt do well with Dress pants....my daughter well she would wear a skirt everyday if I let her..LOL but she too wears her Jeans almost every day as well..oh my what would I do without jeans...LOL
Well, I hear you there. My kids prefer jeans or shorts. Did you see that you can't wear shorts above the knee at Marvin Ridge???? I have never heard of that.

I have never even heard of shorts that come below the knee but when I talked to my friend with a 20 year old son, she told me that it is the fashion now so I guess I will have to look for them.
