    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.

    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 students dress‚ they will still pass judgments on their peers‚ uniforms do not necessarily save money‚ and children are forced to conform to the same standards.

    Against school uniforms I think school uniforms are a bad decision for S.S Seward. S.S Seward students should not be required to wear an official school uniform because it doesn’t give the students a chance to express themselves and make them feel happy and make them feel like they belong. I’m also disagreeing because it causes financial problems and bullying. Financial difficulties seem to be a problem with the school uniforms. Schools claim that school uniforms are less expensive

    If you ask me‚ I’ve never really been too hype about the idea of school uniforms. I don’t know which I hate more‚ the idea of looking like the other 200 girls in my school or having to wear the same thing every day.
