student of the month story

  On april 23, 2017 james bowie high school issued school uniforms to prevent leaving school. They will give everyone a shirt and pants that they have to wear to school and if you dont it will count against your incentive and grade.
  Everyone has different opinions on this idea, because while it can help the attendance, it makes it more difficult for students and they cant adjust to the weather. mostly its the students who disagree with the idea, while the teachers support it.
  James bowie highschool recently issued mandatory school uniforms."We decided to do this because students would leave in the middle of school and it would mess up their attendance, but its much easier to identify a student wearing the school uniform skipping," said school administrator Nicolas Nassour.
  a lot of students do not agree with this idea "the uniforms would prevent skipping, but it makes it too hard for the students and we cant adjust to the weather properly," said student Nicolas Nassour.
  James Bowie high School has 2 months to decide of they want to issue uniforms.
