Flag Raising Leather Shoes, "Solemn" Who Pays The Bill?

A parent recently received a text message from a middle school in Baoan District asking parents to buy "black leaf" brand black shoes for children in two weeks, so that they can flag up every Monday.

The parents say this is very puzzling.

When a high school in Baoan District asked to raise the national flag, "boys dressed in suits and girls wear long stockings" showed the importance of raising the national flag ceremony.

However, parents are deeply puzzled by two points: first, whether it is necessary for middle school students to wear suits and leather shoes to participate in the flag raising ceremony.

As we all know, middle school students who are in developmental stage are fond of movement and restraint, and do not pay much attention to sports.

Moreover, sneakers are more comfortable and practical than leather shoes, and school uniforms are more comfortable and affordable than suits.

Two is that even if the author understands that the school is in line with the requirements of uniform dress, the color of the shoes should be unified, but not even the brand names of shoes should be specified.

Faced with doubts from parents and the public, it is necessary for the school to explain.

The author thinks that at the beginning of the uniform dress requirement, the school should take into account the difference in the family economic status of the students. For most parents, buying a suit or a long skirt may be entirely within the allowance for consumption. However, for a few parents who are poor, additional clothing may be an economic burden.

Therefore, it is necessary for schools to communicate with their parents about everything that costs money. After consultation, it is necessary to introduce appropriate regulations. After all, this is a matter for parents to pay.

Therefore, the author asked the students to wear a suit and leather shoes for the purpose of raising the national flag every Monday. Moreover, the District Education Bureau also said that "the school wear students' clothing is clearly stipulated by the education bureau". That is to say, it is not improper to wear the student clothes to take part in the flag raising ceremony.
