School Uniforms: My Opinion
I am not a fan of school uniforms. I feel they restrict a students freedom of expression a right given to students in the United States. I also feel it would be a financial strain on the less fortunate, it would make them buy almost a whole new wardrobe just for school. In my opinion uniforms take away from student individuality, it makes them feel part of a “system” instead of being independent. That would crush student creativity I think. In compromise I think schools should be allowed to say what students may not wear. That is called a dress code, and I think that would be better then a uniform because it still leaves room for creativity and individuality while still preventing inappropriate clothing. All in all I believe uniforms should be required only for private schools where people have to pay money (other then taxes) to go, dress codes provide a less strict option while still leaving some breathing room.
