We all respect and understand uniformity. But sometimes it can become extreme.

The school uniform policy on outerwear needs to be adjusted for AIS students.

Currently AIS requires the purchase of sweaters with a logo from the school.

It is a financial hardship for some families to have to purchase this sweater, due to cost. The sweaters should be able to be purchased anywhere, from the school, or choice of store, just as the other uniforms. Also, most of the school uniforms do not have the school logo, why is it a requirement on the sweater?

The most concerning hardship falls on our students. Students will be penalized with detention if they do not have their school logo sweater.

Children lose items all the time, including sweaters. During these cold winters, why should a child have to suffer without a sweater, just because it doesn't have a school logo? It would take weeks for the new logo sweater to be ordered and arrive, is the student to suffer being cold, specifically during the winter time just to avoid detention?

The outerwear policy should include the navy blue sweater/hoodie, but it should not need a logo, or be required to be purchased from the school.

I petition for the removal of School bought Logo sweaters at Al Arqam Islamic School.
