Wellsboro High School will begin a trial SCHOOL UNIFORM policy this coming Fall. If it goes well then the entire school system will be implementing a new dress code for the entire school system at the beginning of the 2017 school year.

While some students and parents feel this is too controversial of a subject for a quick decision, School Board President Matt Feil makes it clear on today’s broadcast that the only controversy left to work through is style of uniform to be chosen.

The school board has narrowed things down to eleven remaining choices and will be holding an open public meeting on Tuesday, April 31, 2016 at 7:30 PM at the Wellsboro High School auditorium to discuss the pros and cons of each uniform style. Students and parents are encouraged to attend and will be asked to vote on the uniform of their choice that evening.

Mr. Feil told Home Page that people have a wide variety of uniforms to choose from. There is the straight up classic Adams Green Sports Coat with white shirt and tie, the more flowing green blazer with several tones of green to give students more freedom of expression and even a CAMO look that some board members believe fits more with Tioga County.

During the second half of today’s feature Home Page interviews a number of students to get their thoughts on the subject. And, we take a closer look at the styles the students and parents will be voting on during the April 31st meeting. Have a wonderful April fools day! Thanks for watching! Thanks for sharing!
