Soccer?

As for shorts, just go to Academy. They have Levis too.

My girls can wear shorts in middle school. Not sure about high school. The only problem is finding shorts that are suitable for them to wear to school because most of them are way to short. Having the bermuda shorts come back in style has been nice.

When my oldest was in 6th she had to wear uniforms. We were in NEISD. I did love the uniforms. We moved to Comal ISD last year and they don't have uniforms. Boo Hoo!
I was quite surprised at the lack of dress code requirements they had last year. They are trying to get tougher this year it seems.

Well I don't know about the Comal Middle schools since we didn't move out here until my daughter was in high school, but Smithson Valley HS has very strict dress codes. In fact when my daughter started out here in March they still weren't allowed to wear t-shirts with any printing on them. She couldn't even wear shirts from the Lifeteen group at our church. The only shirts w/printing or graphics that were allowed were Smithson Valley HS t-shirts or College ones. This year they are finally allowed to wear tshirts again as long as there is nothing violent or profane on them.

, , . I never wear shorts. I wear black jeans all year round.

Yep it had been a problem to find shorts that pass the "fingertip" test, so the bermudas sure do help. My daughter decided she wanted some capri length jeans and we were ALL OVER North Star today and found none. So tomorrow we'll hit the ol' standby------Dillard's at Rolling Oaks. Maybe Marshall's, but I never have much luck there.
