“No, the school doesn’t have a uniform. Why do you ask?”

Apparently, this is a photo taken at Cypress Ranch High School, Cypress, Texas on Monday by @cyrichbitch. A time traveller from 1983 Connecticut would feel right at home here.

Now I know why the traffic was so heavy: Unlike Canada and in the northern parts of the US, where Labor Day marks the end of summer vacation, school started this week here and in much of the south. The first day of school in Hillsborough County (which is my neck of Accordion Bay), happened yesterday.
