Students at Immaculate Conception Catholic School have the option of wearing school uniforms. The Southeast Missourian asked them about their preferences.
Sarah Nenninger: "I think that wearing regular clothes to school is more comfortable and cooler. I wore uniforms to school when I was in kindergarten and first grade. I like to have more of a choice of clothes."
Claire Goodson: "I like uniforms because they look good. I sometimes have a hard time choosing which uniform to wear, depending on how I feel, but I like wearing the dress the most."
Scott Lang: "I don't wear a uniform. It would be boring every day. I like to wear soccer clothes and regular shorts and T-shirts."
Claudia Brauss: "It's fun to wear uniforms. I wear a uniform dress with different shirts. It makes it easier to decide what to wear. On Fridays I wear a regular dress or shorts."
Molly Hartmann: "I wear uniform pants and short-sleeved shirts most of the time. It's easier because you don't have to look through the drawers to find things to match. Sometimes I wear regular clothes."
