(Laredo, Tx)_If your children have any gently used school uniforms they may have outgrown or no longer use, the United Independent School District asks that you consider donating them to help students in need.

Beginning now until school starts on August 24, 2015, UISD will have six convenient locations to drop off gently used school uniforms for students.  Donations can include gently used uniform tops, such as blouses and polo shirts, as well as, uniform bottoms such as pants, shorts, and skirts.  Additionally, donations of gently worn shoes and belts would be greatly appreciated.

The student uniform drop-off locations are as follows: 

·         UISD Central Offices located at 201 Lindenwood Drive

·         UISD Curriculum and Instruction Building located at 4410 State Highway 359

·         UISD Bill Johnson Student Activity Complex located at 5208 Santa Claudia Lane

·         Sames Kia located at I-35 and Mann Road

·         The Imaginarium of South Texas located at 5300 San Dario (next to Dillard’s Department Store at Mall Del Norte)

·         Chick-fil-a at Marketplace located at 1916 Bob Bullock Loop (Loop 20 and Clark)

“UISD is in need of all uniform sizes for boys and girls in elementary, middle, and high school. Donations will greatly benefit students who are in need of these items, from pre-k through 12th grade,” said Associate Superintendent for Administration Gloria S. Rendon.

Chick-fil-a will give a complimentary chick-fil-a combo dinner with a donation of a complete, NEW student uniform. They will also give a complimentary sandwich with a donation of a gently used uniform item.

As per UISD policy, all students must adhere to the student uniform dress code as described in the Student Code of Conduct.
