Private schools often enforce uniforms‚ which are standardized to indigo or khaki pants and collared shirts limited to the school colors. Many of the public schools in the United States that do not have a uniform policy‚ administer a dress code which the students often neglect and teachers fail to implement.

Driving to school has been tough because most kids at my school dont know how to properly drive within the lines and park straight‚ so dodging a bunch of reckless rednecks in trucks and preppy girls in smart cars is a struggle.

A big reason for this has to do with all the current events going on in our country such as the reasons for the Black Lives Matter movement
