  • Mandatory Policy Of Uniforms And School
    1,620 words
    The argument whether uniforms should be allowed in school has been debated over the last few decades. By implementing a uniform policy within schools would help reduce the rise of violent crimes. In today's high schools, too many innocent youths become fatalities due to gang warfare that has spread into the school system. Many parents feel that if a uniform policy was implemented the spread of gang warfare and the idea children have to have name brand clothing would decrease drastically. However...

    School Dress Codes a Plus Do schools really need a dress code Just ask parents of kids who have to wear them and they will probably say yes.

  • Everyday To A Non Uniformed School
    976 words
    I believe all people have the right to express themselves. However, with rights come responsibility, a concept most people ignore. Having a 'right' is to be free to express one's self. Consequentially, having a 'responsibility' is doing it constructively, in such a way as to not violate policies, laws, and others' rights. There is a definite difference between a dress code and a school uniform. I support enforcing a school dress code, but is implementing a school uniform necessary? No matter how...
  • School Uniforms

    Most teenagers, when asked about wearing uniforms say they hate the idea. I am a teenager myself and before researching this topic I thought I would never wear them. I have found in my research numerous reasons uniforms should be implemented. First, they protect us. You may be asking how an article of clothing can protect you. It is much more difficult to conceal a weapon in a uniform that it is to conceal it in a traditional baggy pair of jeans. Second, uniforms eliminate competition. Students ...

Children are being ridiculed because their families simply can't afford to provide them with the latest in fashion. In our larger cities where gang involv...
  • School Uniforms
    1,322 words
    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 g...

Upon questioning your child, you discover that, despite your best efforts at compliance, your child's clothing has violated t...

    1,680 words
    Uniforms in the School Environment: Can Clothing Really Effect Your Education? Going to public schools all my life, I heard the gossip of 'fashion' and 'whose wearing what,' pretty much everyday; at least in the four years of high school where it seemed that looks mattered the most. As people grow up, the way they present themselves becomes more and more important. Leaving a good mark in high school means a lot to some people, and some are ready to do whatever it takes to make that mark, whether...
