School Uniforms Controversy

In conclusion, you can see, the school uniform debate has come a long way. School uniforms might not be the answer for every school, but is definitely a start for improving our children’s safety and behavior. If students and parents take the time to understand exactly how the policy works and the benefits of it, then more and more will come to believe that in today’s society; school uniforms are the right choice. In the end, students are more conscientious and better behaved when they are dressed neatly and modestly.

If your school has uniforms, have you ever walked into the cafeteria in the morning and you couldn’t find you friends? This is one of the many reasons why I think that we shouldn’t have school uniforms. First of all, you wear the same exact thing everyday. You never mix it up with new and exciting clothes for school. Every student just keeps wearing their uniform day after day. You might start to feel like your life is so boring and that every day is the same thing.  Next, kids might not want to go to school. Some people might be so bored of uniforms and school that they don’t really want to go to school the next day. They might feel like

In summary, schools should not have uniforms. They do not allow students to express themselves. Also, they teach conformity over individuality. In addition to being useless in schools, they do not improve attendance, academic preparedness, or test results. Really, they do not improve anything. If you were a principal, would you enforce a uniform

A major battle being fought throughout the public education system is the controversial decision over school uniforms. School uniforms should not be enforced upon students in public schools. Uniforms create an extra expense for parents, take away the student's ability to express themselves through their attire, and increase insecurity in children that do not fit the mold of average

Today, many schools around the world enforce uniforms, requiring students to wear specific clothing. School uniforms, which was first established in 16th century England, are a topic of much debate in the public school system of the United States. Many people feel that uniforms reduce competition among students and bring a sense of unity in school. People who are against school uniforms think that they prevent students from expressing themselves and inhibits creativity. Many students dislike school uniforms because uniforms can be viewed as a violation of their rights, while others benefit from uniforms because it relieves the stress of picking what to wear to school. Although school uniforms do have its benefits, they also limit

The bell rings and the students head to class. Everyone's the same. You've heard the stories where everyone is the same, and it doesn’t seem fun. Schools are putting uniforms on the students for many reasons. That is not letting the students express and be themselves. I do not think schools should have uniforms because they are pricey, don't reduce bullying, and don't let students express themselves.

Many people have different views on whether or not students should have to wear school uniforms. There are many different reasons why students should and shouldn’t have to wear them. Whether it be in favor them due to less bullying, less pressure on what to wear in the morning, lower cost, less violence, the ability to recycle the uniforms, or the ability to prepare students for the real world. The people against them feel that they take away from the ability to freely express yourself, uniforms cost more upfront, there will be bullies from other schools, it will lower comfort zones, and enforcing the rules will be difficult. But in my opinion school uniform will provide many different things like cost efficiency, safety for the students, increased mental focus, and the ability to prepare students for the real world.

Kids pay attention to their clothes and make sure they look fine so they don't look like they don't fit into a crowd. Uniforms can restrict kids from talking to each other and mocking other contact because no one looks unique out a sea of people looking the same. It doesn't help either with restricting some colors it makes school bland and boring. We should have a dress code but not restricted totally taken away from school. Thats my opinion of school uniforms

Some students argue that they are not giving an opportunity to freely express themselves with regular clothes. There are people who have fashion statements and this does not exempt students. By dictating on them when it comes to the clothes they wear, they can be resentful about it. With that being said students can express themselves in other ways such the way they walk, the way they talk, and in many other ways. Also some students do not want to wear school uniforms because they feel as if it would hinder their performance in the classroom. They feel as if they are obligated to wear uniforms, their performance, behavior, and attendance will be affected in a negative way. With that being said students say those things for personal reasons. The clothes students wear does not have a real effect on performance inside the classroom.

In conclusion, it is time for schools to put an end to uniforms, as the negative effects of uniforms heavily outweigh the positive effects. Uniforms are extremely detrimental to adult development, costly, and it lowers students

Public schools grant children and teens the opportunity to learn and grow together but without uniform sometimes a disruption can be created against that unity. School is apart of the developmental learning and growth that prepares its students for adult hood; one way to ensure that is to practice discipline, which I believe uniform compliments. None uniform clothing can shine light on a lot of things; some students and even teachers can potentially fall under the wrong light that may result into them being a target for bullying.

The popularity of school uniforms is on the rise. As a student, it is a bit bizarre to say that switching to uniforms may not be an awful idea after all, however this may just be the truth. Although, I have never experienced first-hand bullying, I have heard others talk about some of the mean things people say to them about the way they look and dress. This hurts my heart to think that people could be so hurtful to others, and I believe school uniforms are a way to prevent this and in the end, better the school. There are plenty of facts that confirm that the requirement of school uniforms is actually a good thing.

However, most public schools are turning to something more casual and more acceptable to parents and students: khakis or jeans and knit shirts of varying colors. The latter appear to be more affordable too because they can be used outside of school. Many school districts that have implemented school uniforms have provided some sort of financial assistance for families that can not afford the extra expense.

After several not-so-great experiences I have had in the school district, I think I have come up with a long-term solution to increasing amounts of disrespect and subordination both among the students and the faculty. I grew up in a parochial school in New York City. In St. Andrews we had to wear school uniforms. The memories of my childhood aren't filled with unforgivable actions towards me, and people picking on each other about what clothes they are wearing. The most trouble I ever remember getting myself into was during the first or second grade when I lost one of my phonetics books. Never do I remember fights in school or any threat of violence. Considering the fact that this was a different time, it was only a few years ago. I

I believe that schools that have uniforms are just teaching kids to not wear what they want and not be who they are because they can't show through there style. If you have to wear the same or similar clothes to everyone else in the school is just showing that everyone is the same but they're not. According to greengarageblog.org, it said “One huge disadvantage of school uniforms is that students will not be able to show their personality through clothing. Directly connected to the first mentioned disadvantage, children and teens cannot (or will have difficulties too) demonstrate their personal sense of style.” Each person
