Looking to enroll my daughter in a chassidishe school here in monsey and constantly seeing girls out and about in their uniform that 'seem' to be the same shnit as us. Always wonder which schools they go to but I can't identify most of the uniforms. Specifically saw someone recently with brown jumper and brown pinstripe blouse. Anyone know which school wears that?

Appreciate any help!

So you want to enroll your daughter in a school based on the uniform?? You can't know which "shnit" a school is based on that. You need to do proper information on a school.
Kesser Bais Yaakov has a deep burgundy/brownish jumper with pin stripe shirt. Neutral chassidish.

You can't know anything about the hashkafa of a school based on how their girls look. Chassidish girls all look very similar.

I go up to people and ask them what school they are in when they are with adults. I say wow I’m so impressed your kid has great middos what school is she in. That’s how I did research in my area. You can really learn a lot that way.

You can tell a lot by observing people.

Some people really don’t have anything to go off besides what they see in the street.

Not everyone is blessed to be hooked up with people in the know.
Be nice

Monsey dos not have a uniform store?
It's pretty quiet now in uniform stores, why don't you go and ask?

you can also ask the girls who are wearing the uniforms what school are you in

Middos generally come from the home. Every school has girls with good middos, not good middos, and everything in between.
I think OP would have better luck describing what type of school she's looking for, what type of hashkafa their home is.....

I don’t agree, when I saw all girls in a certain uniform acting in a positive way or all acting in a negative way it was reflecting the school.

Thanks everyone who came in with helpful replies! Appreciate it.

Obviously I'm not looking for a school based on the uniform or the actions/look of a handful of girls I've seen around Monsey. My question was very specifically about which schools have which uniforms.

It's so disheartening to see the snap judgment, unsolicited advice and judgemental opinions of some replies. It must be so exhausting to view situations in a negative light first. Maybe sometimes an innocent question is just that, an innocent question.

I was so happy to hear of this forum to ask questions to frum women like myself, especially when you don't have a big circle of friends or family to rely on. Thank you for the helpful advice to the rest of you, thought it would be interesting for me to just ask the girls or their mother but it's true that if I acknowledge why I'm asking (I.e. impressed with their behavior, tznius etc) then I might just be doing a mitzvah too:)

I’m not from monsey, so can’t help with that. But a fun activity is to browse fraylich uniform website by school Very Happy

And good luck in finding the right school!
