Dear Mom,

I strongly feel that you like to be nice looking for school. I have only worn sweats to school once and everyone else wears them to school. I also wear gouchos and they are basicly the same thing. Since they are made out of the same material, I think I should be able to wear them even though they are a bit different. Sweats can be good if they aren't too baggy or too loose fitting. I would never, ever wear baggy sweats to school because they look bad.

I know that you think sweats are meant to work out in, however, I might be starting gym soon, so I will have to wear them for that and in the winter to the track training. For the winter track training I might have to go outside and run, so I will need to wear them to school because we would have to go straight there and I wouldn't be able to change. Also to be able to run outside in the winter I have to wear something warm and flexible.

At target, the jeans ar $14.99 and the sweats, which are much cheaper, are $5.99. Mom, I understand you think that sweats are inappropriate to wear to school period, however, The Littleton Public School Disrtict states that Mini skirts, buttie shorts, tank tops, low cut shirts, saggy pants, ( including saggy sweats), etc., are inappropriate to wear to school. They never state that regular, pulled up, not saggy sweats are wrong to wear.

I appretiate you reading this letter and giving me the four reasons you appose. I hope that you will understand what I stated above. I would appretiate it if you considered this, and contact me if you don't. I would like to wear sweats to school, because I want to be comfortable. I love you and your the best! See you soon.

Love, Maddie
