Our shirts look great. I hand-rinsed each shirt individually with hot water 

and then did a large load of laundry using the hottest water possible.

it to your laundry load at home. The kids are excited! The shirts 

will be coming home with them today. The first grade team has

 decided to wear them on the following dates:
