Designated color bottom in pants or skirt, and a designated color polo shirt with a choice of long or shirt sleeves. Done! Makes life much simpler. And less expensive. Private schools have done this for eons. And in the last 20 years or so, some public schools. Ditto charter schools. My grandchildren wear school uniforms to a public charter school - makes mornings much easier. (blue polo shirt and black bottoms with a school t-shirt on Friday) Kids can “express themselves” in other ways.
