    Another random thought, something that has come across my mind a few times lately.

    So, I remember when I started high school, I think it was actually my freshman year at walker high when uniforms were forced onto students. At the time, and for a long period after, and maybe even currently, the reason given for enforcement of uniform dress code was to be more "inclusive" to students who's families could not afford name brand clothing. I didn't like it for a number of reasons but I somewhat bought the reasoning, although, you could still clearly tell the difference between most name brand uniforms compared to cheaper ones.
    Fast forward to today, where uniform dress code is still enforced, yet we have a bank, fast food, AND a NIKE store right there inside the school.
    So much for the initial reasoning for the uniforms, am I right?

    Anyone else see a problem with this?

    Walker high school has a Nike store and fast food places inside the school? Wtf
    I can't remember what fastfood they have in there. Wife says they definitely have a PJ Coffee but I'll have to ask my daughter to be sure about anything else. I do know for sure about the other corporate entities mentioned.

    Wish I had a McDonalds in the High School I went too. I spent 4 years without Lunch. Food was distgusting from the cafeteria.
    I mean, I can't argue about the food quality overall. There were some decent meals but I avoided most of it in general. I wouldn't have been against any of this as a kid because I wouldn't have known any better. Now that I am able to see the bigger picture, I can't help but to call it for what it is.

    Supposidly a ruse to try and teach the students how to run/operate a some of these different business in the real world. Have heard of some schools even have student run credit unions/banks on their school property......... bottom line is be very careful with todays schools be they public or private because of their possible hidden agenda. ...They are not doing any of these actions out of the goodness of heart. ...................................... drill sgt.

    That’s Louisiana schools for you. Let’s teach our youth how to be store clerks at sneaker shops. That will really prepare them for life and teach them how to make a good living for themselves.

    Doesn't surprise me that the majority (if not all) of those companies are of the BLM/woke variety.

    All Corporations are of the BLM and Woke Variety. Even local Louisiana based companies. I do not understand it. Become a CEO and you become a libtard instead of telling the dumb stupid screaming 20 year olds to sit down and shut up.

    I graaduate HS in West Monroe back in 1963. The cafeteria was great, and the yeast rolls were to die for. Wish I could find some place now that made them like that. I think lunch was something line 14-16 cents per day in those days.
