nope. there should be a slight dress code, so there arn't kids wlaking aorund naked. But I mean people should wear what they want. They say it helps control popularity facotrs, from wearing lables, ect. But it doesn't! lol those retards. They should let the kids decide. We are the ones who have to goto the hell every day

I say, have uniforms until the start of highschool.

Kids just all the look the same in middle school anyways (as in, everyone copies one-anothers style to the max), might as well put them into uniforms and save them the trouble of "expressing" themselves.

they should have uniforms...thats just one more thing taken away from us at school. but on the otherhand people at our school [mainly girls] come into school dressed up as if they're about to strip. personally i dont wanna see that...but then uniforms suck [i went to private school for a while] so i guess what most schools do is they best. which is have a dress code.

Plus, you would not have to worry about not to wear the next day. tongue.gif

yes cuz some kids cant afford to buy those expensive brand name clothes liek the others, and school isnt a place to show off what type of clothes u wear...
and some people are looked down upon based on what kind of clothes they have so maybe if everyone wears the same thing that might change...

I think we should have uniforms, actually. For one thing, I won't have to be disgusted everyday at skirts shorter than five year-old girls' skirts, it would be a lot cheaper for many because parents wouldn't have to put up with buying the "latest trends" for their children. Oh, and about "expressing yourself" - trust me, there are plenty of ways to express yourself. You can write in English, join clubs, do sports, etc. There are tons of ways other than you can express yourself other than dress. Furthermore, it wouldn't make high school such a popularity contest. This is just one factor in that.

i'd say have have uniforms until you go to university ^_______^" have the option here and would rather go to a private school with uniforms then an public school... but all catholic school have uniforms anyways...
pros:
WIth uniforms someone doe snot have to worry about what to wear the next mroe anymore...
does not feel left out if they don't stay with the trend
does not need to waste sooo much money buying all kindas of different clothes and updating it ever sooo often.
no one would get made fun of by the way they dress...

cons:
no self independence... can't should your own crativity
must wear what the school requires...

tooo lazy to think now =)

To those who are saying that uniforms take away indepence/uniqueness/creativitiy:


Creativity comes from the your inner self. If you are truly a creative person, you'll learn to express yourself through other means.

How does wearing uniforms take away independence? Just because you're wearing the same thing as the person next to you doesn't mean that you're any more dependent on things than they are. It's just an excuse.

To be unique doesn't necessarily mean to stand out by wearing expensive/strange clothing. It can mean acting differently or reserving a unique opinion on things...

BE CREATIVE. Uniforms aren't the end of the world.

i think school uniforms would prevent a lot of things..for example..ppl wouldnt judge others by the clothes they wear or they wouldnt be labeled as a "punk" or a "slut" because of the way they dress..im a bit undecided because i know i wouldnt want to have to wear a uniform..but then again i think about how it would prevent cliques and what not..soooo yeah..still undecided..i'll get back to you on that..

it shouldn't be a different. some people like to dress in their own style and not have one set for them. others may like the uniform policy because it saves the trouble of having to figure out what to wear everyday for school. i personally like to wear different things depending on my mood .. i don't like having outfits planned for me.

I say no. I don't see anything drastically good and different with school that have the uniforms and ones that don't have uniforms. Trust me people can and WILL still look slutty with a uniform or dress code. We had it for one year at my old middle school and we had to wear collard shirts,khaki's or jean. All you had to do was buy TIGHT jeans or very short skirts, and then buy the collard shirts that had snaps.buttons that went down past your chest and unbuttoned them. Uniforms won't stop any problems to me esp. not kids being made fun of. Though I love children, they are vicous creatures, they will make fun of you no matter what, because it goes past the clothes into who you are. Unifroms don't solve problems to me they create more because someone will be less focused on your clothing and more focused on tearing down who you actually are. Plus you still have to worry about what you will wear the next day, esp if you have various uniforms, becuase shoot i still had that problem last year.

I don't see anything really positive about uniforms so therefore i am against it.

Now if they all had to wear Red Army Uniforms, then it would be hard to look slutty.
