Appropriate dress for the first day of school

My friend Mary Ellen is the first grade teacher at Ocracoke School. She's also an avid NC State Wolfpack fan, a fact which is quite well known on the island. So imagine her surprise when yesterday, the first day of school, ALL of her new students arrived dressed in Carolina Tarheel blue! Of course, she went home at lunch and changed into her best Wolfpack red. I love that story as an example of a fun small town prank.

For all you teachers and students out there: hope your first day of school was (or will be, if it hasn't happened yet) fun, wherever you are...
