PSs here, too. Tan slacks and white golf shirts at the school near my old apt. kids "individualize" them, though. :) Hell, you can get school uniforms at Walmart around here. I seem to recall them in upstate NY, too. I always figured that a portion of the school uniform market at Walmart was for people who sent their kids to bible thumpin'' skoolz and i don't think they're all that expensive.
