First the schools, then Wal-Mart!!!
It’s a good thing they don’t check on homeschoolers, then. I used to do whole subjects in my pj’s.

Burkhas are excepted, no doubt.
I agree with this policy.
It used to be that people would not go out in public without being dressed neatly — look at any picture of a public space from the 1940’s, for instance.
I don’t know what’s lazier - wearing pajamas in the car, or re-running an entire news article from 2007.
I agree, people who are slobs should be called out. Put on some clothes before going out.
1.Wearing pyjamas and slippers
2.Tune Okra show
3.Pick up kids at school
4.Return to Okra show
I live in a college town. This problem has reached epidemic proportions here.
If these women are just dropping off kids and not parading around in their PJ’s its no school nazi’s business. Who’s out checking the cars for clothing?
My kids have to be at school at 7am. It’s too early. Grant it, I do slip on nice workout clothes. However, I drop them off, get a cup of coffee, catch up on the computer, and then take my shower and get dressed.
Wow ... I can sympathize to a small extent about drop-off ... but PICK-UP!?
What I hate is when I’m looking horrible, and I actually have to get out of the car (like when a kid forgets their lunch and I need to walk it to the office, or I have a sick kid that I have to go pick up). If I know I have to get out, I try to look presentable.

Well it is a good thing you aren't in charge then isn't it? We don't need people who think they have the right to tell others what to wear, especially school officials.
Excellent.
When I was a young Army artillery officer stationed in West Germany in the late 1980s, one community commander took drastic steps to reduce the slovenly appearance of soldiers and their family members.
He instructed the local MPs to cruise the military facilities and popular local establishments. Whenever they came across a soldier or dependent wearing their dirty PT uniforms, inappropriate t-shirts, bras on the outside (thanks, Madonna), etc., they were instructed to detain and return the offending individuals back to the military kasernes. There, the CO or his Sergeant Major would dress down the indiviudals and make the rules clear.
Worked like a charm.
Slovenly solution: sleep in your street clothes. Problem solved.
