School Uniforms...

I think it depends on the school...In high school, yes, I think we should have them. But not in middle school. I go to middle school and we have to wear uniforms (black, blue, red, white, and yellow 3 button shirts and black, navy, khaki pants/capris/skirts/shorts). However, when we get to high school, we don't have to wear them. I find that annoying. High schoolers are more likely to show more skin than middle schoolers. Then why do middle schoolers have to wear uniforms?

i go to a private skool, but i'm in high skool, i have the same dress code as pixiedust, and i think its a alright idea. Though it does prevent fads and critisism with people who cant afford brand name clothing, it also prevents kids from expressing themselves, and u cant be more expressive than your clothes!

I agree with USAchick and Pixiedust! 👏

in my shcool we wear uniform. but we have non-unifrom days a couple oft imes during the yr. i'm ahppy with that. i mean then u get to show ur creative sides on that day. and on the day's fpr unifrom it;s o.k there not that bad. any way most of the kids wear their uniform in their own style.

Its important to have a school uniform , for various reasons : 1) Kids aren't meant to show creativity through dress while at school - concentrate on creativity through academic means 2) Its important that kids all learn that they must treat there school fellows all equally - not make judgements on persons economic levels - or dress sense.
3) There won't be a way to draw the line between whats acceptable and whats not on levels of decency !!

School can be a very harsh ground ,and school kids can be realy mean to each other . Kids get bullied all the time about dress sense, or they aren't wearing whats in fashion. It puts a unneccesary pressure on the kid to blend in with the hip and happening crowd , irrespective of whether the parents can provide for the child or not .

Uniform should be all the way through school . You will get the rest of your life to make a fashion statement , !!

well said👏

i would like to add that its true that some 'students' like to emphasise on their creative side and on their individuality through the clothes they wear but on the other hand wearing any uniform means being associated to a institution. This can often be a source of pride ...one gets a sense of belonging... i often like to remind students of army generals and other personal who definitely do not get upset about their uniform. it is their priviledge to be in it and it could mean the same to the students. they should stop thinking about themselves and think of the institution to which they belong. there the 'uni'-'form' actually acts as a 'unifier' and 'equaliser'. i think this is an important ritual before the learning experience can start....

yh there creative stylke doesn't need to be shown throguht their dress snese. it can be shown through thier school work.

i think school uniforms should be banned i hate those white and blue uniforms 🤢

I think that they should have uniforms in high school. Today there is so much pressure as to what's in/out and not everyone can or are allowed to wear certain things.

It makes life a lot easier so you don't feel peer pressure when everyone dresses the same.
