Mailed in Guest Issues:	We received correspondence from a parent with a concern about free dress. Mrs. Bordin addressed the issue explaining that free dress was permitted only when appropriate. Annetta Giambruno wrote in with her concern on the practicality of white shoes for girls. Her daughters do not like to wear black sneakers & she finds the white ones difficult to keep clean. The current school uniform allows both black & white sneakers to give students and parents a choice. The board decided to leave as is.
