All nine middle schools in the Tacoma School District now have something in common - their students were school uniforms.
The News Tribune says this fall Jason Lee Middle School became the last to require uniforms. Most schools require polo shirts or school-logo sweat shirts - some allow jeans, others don't.
Many parents say the uniforms make life easier - there's no drama about what to wear, costs are lower and there's no peer pressure to wear expensive, popular brands. Others say the uniforms limit the kids' personal freedom.
