This petition was started by Middle School students in the hopes that the Middle School will adopt a girls uniform beginning in the 2021/2022 school year. The loosened up dress code during the pandemic has made girls realize just how stressful it was when they had to adhere to the SSSAS dress code from last year. Girls have a particularly difficult time finding clothing that falls within the dress code and fits properly. Having a uniform would relieve stress and anxiety that the dress code causes and would reduce the number of formals given for violations. Uniforms would nurture a sense of equity, inclusion and belonging. Students would stand out because of their character and personalities and not their clothes. Uniforms would also save parents money. The petition only addresses a girls uniform because the dress code for boys already closely resembles a uniform.

Girls, Boys and Parents within the SSSAS (current and rising) Middle School community are all welcome to join us in this petition!

The idea here is to find out what the interest level is, so please no negative comments. Be sure to write your first and last name. This will only work if we have real signatures.
