High School Dress Code
There are many things I am looking forward to and not looking forward to in high school. There are a few things that make me nervous, such as having harder classes with people in higher grades. Overall there always seems to be more exciting things that come to my mind when I think about it. For instance, the dress code, the BYOD policy, and the freedom.

Likewise, the dress code at the high school is almost non-existent. Which means, we are allowed to wear the clothes we like. Such as, shorts, ripped jeans, and tank tops. At the middle school we aren't allowed to wear jeans with holes in them, which I do not particularly like. Not having to be worried about the dress code is something i'm looking forward to.

    I am rarely ever the one to post, especially about my issues, but I am speaking for many. While the discussion and arguments about school dress code are going on so isn’t downgrading, stereotyping, and bullying. Many comments have been made by people who are stereotyping others for instance cheerleaders. We are being stereotyped as preppy, snobby, slutty, “the populars”, and the list goes on. We are being used in examples like “The people who wear intentional holey jeans and revealing clothing are “the populars” and cheerleaders.” And “The cheerleaders wear skirts hiked up their butts and push their boobs up to the sky, but I got in trouble for wearing the clothes I did, this is favoritism.” This being all untrue is stereotyping, downgrading…

    What is fair? What is fair when it comes to schools dress code? Parents have said when they were in high school they could wear off-the shoulder crop tops with their low-rise jeans and chucks and be just fine. Smithville High School has made strict rules on what to wear to be less “distracting to the learning environment.” But it’s a natural thing for people to be attracted to others, whether it's our personalities, our smile, in this case, our skin. Some private, and some public schools have school uniforms to become “equal” and to be “one.” But why is our school making the things we are wearing a big deal. AND it's even “bad” enough we have to be removed from our education because we are “such a distraction to the…

    Starting high school was a terrifying idea to me. Different teachers, class times, lockers, drama! I remember that I always looked up to my older sister while she was in high school. She had tons of friends, played sports, participated in student government, and went out for the school play. I wanted to be just like her when I started high school. In middle school, I lined myself up for this, I played soccer in the fall and basketball in the winter. I helped out in the school plays, and I joined the student government. I had a group of great friends, and thought nothing bad was going to happen.…

    I say there shouldn’t be dress code for Magnet Schools. If it is middle schools then yes, but not in high school. As it is some magnet middle/high schools you have to apply to get into. If you don't apply you can’t go. I feel like high school’s shouldn’t have to get a dress code because what if you can't afford to buy buy uniforms or collar shirts. That goes for guys and girls because what if you can't afford more than one uniform or skirts for the girls and some collar shirts. It may prepare you for a job to look well presented but not all kids could afford the clothes. The school may look well presented but I feel if they wanted to dress code they should support with the uniforms. So there shouldn't be a dress code but there should be a…

    Have you ever been sent home from school because of what you were wearing? Maybe you should have been sent home, but you did not get caught? I am writing this paper because high school students across the country. and some parts of the world. get sent home and miss out on education simply because you could see their shoulders. (Buzzfeed) At Haven we have it pretty easy. In other areas it may be more difficult to find a cute outfit to wear. Some may even struggle to find something cute to put with or on their uniform that will not get them in any kind of trouble. School dress codes around the country. and some parts of the world, should be less severe. should not prevent individuality, and should not be difficult to follow.…

    Dress codes are rules that the country has utilized for years. But are these rules necessary? They often suppress students’ individuality as well as students’ self-expression. At the same time these rules also discriminate and needlessly sexualize young women. Dress codes were put in place to establish a distraction-free environment for students. And yet, they are doing the opposite, and thus, modifying or eliminating them would be most logical.…

    High School Dress Codes

    In Classical High School, a boy and girl are sat beside each other. Both learning. Both participating in class. Both wearing sleeveless shirts. The principal happens to walk in and asks the girl to step out of the class to speak. The girl ends up getting sent home for distracting the class. Dazed and confused, the girl asks why and the principal responds with “your shirt is distracting the boys”. Is this insulting to boys saying they get distracted by foolish things like a shoulder? Or an insult to girls making them seem like they are just sex objects that need to cover up for others sake. Many public high schools have extremely sexist dress codes. Not only is this not equal, but also keeps alive rape culture by saying girls are sluts for having shorts not reaching their fingertips. Sexist standards…

    When schools have dress codes they usually have dress codes for boys and girls. But the dress codes for girls are always much more strict. The dress codes for girls are usually no leggings or sweatpants, tank tops, shorts, undergarments showing, or skirts that are shorter than fingertip length. But for boys for boys the dress codes are something like no baggy pants or inappropriate shirts. And most of the time they don’t get into much trouble for wearing something against the dress code like girls do.…
