School uniforms, are they a burden to families in the United States, or are they preventing students form the hardships of being bullied? In a case of a low income family, uniforms are a better choice. Uniforms not only keep a school in order and prevent provocative clothing, but hide a student’s backgrounds from being manipulated by everyday bullies. School uniforms should be enforced in several schools because they teach students professionalism, will encourage teamwork and success in school, and prevent sexual harassment in schools and at home.…
Even though the argument on whether or not school uniforms takes away the student's right to self-expression will never end. Having school uniforms for the students to wear will eliminate bullies who pick on other students based on their clothing. Uniforms will eliminate the separation of social classes when that is mainly determined by what clothing a person wears. Last but not least, schools that require the students to wear school uniforms makes a formal look on the school. Uniforms may seem boring, but if they are able to help improve learning for students, they are a very reasonable…

This is proven false by many studies. if there are no clothes to bully people over bullies will just find something else like your hair, money, or even less stupid things such as a lie they make up about you (“Pros and cons of school uniforms).…
One reason why students should wear uniforms is schools would be a safer place because not many dangers would harm the school. For example, schools “struggling with gang problems report that school uniforms” (http://www.articlebase.com/advice-articles/pros-and-cons-of-school-uniforms-182.html). Any sort of gang related “identity or markings would not be an issue” and in “addition baggy clothing used to hide weapons, drugs or pregnancy would make the lives of teens more transparent and less hidden from adults” (http://www.procon lists.com/list/education/school-uniforms/35). Making students wear school uniforms would make it easier to identify hidden icons that many teenagers hide. Uniforms “make identification of children who belong to the school and those who don’t easy” (http://www.proconslists.com/list/education/school-uniforms/35). School “intruders are more easily identified in a school of uniformed children” (http://www.sheknows.com/living/articles/809991/the-pros-and-cons-of-school-uniforms). If we wear school uniforms then you can easily find intruders in school because they will not be wearing uniforms. Therefore, American school students should wear uniforms because dangerous activities and…
"Just slapping clothes on kids won't improve a school, but uniforms accompanied by other reforms can make a difference. Uniforms send a message and remind students that they are in school. One element of the message is that when you are going to school, that is your place of work. That is the place where you are working at getting smart." ~Joe Palumbo. Uniforms cause children to be more civilized and mature in what they are doing. It could lead the kids to a greater future and teach them to be more proper. It is a great idea for schools to implement a policy on school uniforms because it provides more focus to learning, reduces peer pressure, and increases school pride.…
In public and private schools, students are constantly being judged on what they wear and how they look. These judgments influence students to pick on others and induce bullying. If schools make uniforms mandatory, this cause of bullying would be eliminated, thus reducing the number of bullying incidents. Therefore, school uniforms should be required for all students because they will reduce bullying, relieve stress and make school a safer place.…

People say that being forced to wear school uniforms violates student’s rights, makes students easy targets for bullying, and it can also be a financial burden for families who are not as wealthy as others. People who like the idea include teachers and staff. They like the idea of school uniforms because of the positives it brings to the school and because it makes the school look better. What about the kids who go to the school and have to wear the uniforms? People do not get to hear their opinion and what the students think about this issue. Having the students talk and express their minds and share their thoughts about it could possibly make an impact on other people’s views. According to www.ehow.com, financial difficulties, and individual expression are some examples about school uniforms. Students need to learn to express themselves and their wardrobes. School…
The issue of school uniforms dates all the way back to the 1980s when public schools were getting looked down upon for not having uniforms. Many argue against them saying they take away from children’s individuality and ultimately don’t save parents money. With all the facts at hand I am prepared to stand up and speak my opinion about the benefits school uniforms and dress codes have. (Wilde, Kakoulas and Modenbach)…

In conclusion, uniforms should be enforced in public schools because it will help to reduce bulling, inflict less pressure to impress others, avoid inappropriate dressing, and save the parents…
Not very many schools around the United States make their students wear uniforms. According to the U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics, during the 2013-14 school year only fifteen percent of schools required their students to wear uniforms. Some people believe that the use of uniforms will help decrease the amount of bullying and crime in schools. They also believe that by wearing uniforms, students will focus more on their school work instead of their clothes. On the other hand, I believe that the use of school uniforms limits a student's freedom to express themselves. Also, I believe school uniforms don’t help the amount of bullying, it could even make it worse if someone can’t afford a uniform. Lastly,…
Others argue the importance of school uniforms but in reality, they can break the school and families down. They won’t make students feel unique, it is costly for parents, and it can create bullying. Why change a policy that can create harm to students and their environment they live in. Instead, let’s make sure that schools have the freedom to wear what they…
Have you ever attended a school where school uniforms were mandatory? The answer is probably yes, as during the 2013-2014 school year, one-fifth of public schools in the United States had to do so. As for me, from Kindergarten until 5th grade I had to wear a school uniform. But once 6th grade rolled around and I changed schools, uniforms were not enforced. I’ve seen both sides to this story, and believe that school uniforms are a controversial subject which can be easily contrasted. Some may think that school uniforms can help students succeed, while others think that they don’t alter the success of a student at all. No matter if a school enforces uniforms or opposes them, the education of the student is most important.…
