New School, New Rules

H has been spending his time taking back the uniforms that we had bought for the school we thought A would be attending, and buying the new uniforms. In some ways, this school is less strict on the uniform, by not dictating the color of the shoes, coats, and bags. However, this school states that hair must not be colored and must be worn neat, preferably pulled back in a black or navy blue ponytail holder. When H read this aloud to her, there was a huge sigh as A stomped out the room exclaiming that they were trying to take the fun out of everything! We laughed of course. I have to remind her that I used to have to wear a brown plaid pleated skirt and a blouse the color of nicotine stained teeth as a uniform, and then she has no comeback.

Since she had to have the light ends of her hair cut off, she decided to get a lot cut off to make the “neat” part easier.
