What school district is Sheffield High School part of?
As a parent I have visited Sheffield High School on many occasions and was not happy or satisfied with the students uniform, their appearance and behavior.
I think the teachers are not very concerned about the students. I have asked on different occasions why are anyone enforcing the dress code guidelines and one of the staff members told me that it was a fad and faze that the students are going through and they will change.
I was sadden because if we are teaching our children at home that they are going to be face with many rules and regulations in life that they are should be ready to follow those rules no matter what their personal perferences are; the choices that our students make will make or break them for the rest of their lives. Sheffield High School could be a high performing school if the staff were more concern about the product they are grooming to go out into the world to represent them. Your underdogs (students) are only as strong as the (topdog) make them. They will end up putting out as little as they have received.
