SCHOOL UNIFROMS

High school students shouldn’t wear uniforms to school; high school is a time when kids begin to distinguish themselves from one another. High school students began to develop their own sense of personal style, trying to fit into a group of people or try to stand out. It helps students gain confidence in them. That’s why students should not be forced to wear uniforms to school. Wearing uniforms is also a cover up to the real problems teen and children face today. Uniforms violate student’s right of self-expression, depriving them of their search for their real identity. Now a days I think school uniforms are being pushed more and more into schools, but when you bring up school uniforms most people think  or picture children all in the same colored uniforms gathered in front of a Catholic church or a private school. This picture is one of the many problems with school uniforms. Instead of being seen as an individual, students are seen as just another kid in a uniform attending the fancy private schools. The students cannot develop the self-expression that is crucial to their development at this age. Also Uniforms are thought to create a more protected campus and learning environment, however, if someone wants to bully someone else, clothes are not going to stop them. The cost, which is usually seen as a pro, can actually be more than people anticipate. As one can see, in the best interest of the any student, school uniforms should not be made part of the dress code.
