    Have you ever been “coded” while you were at school? Do you think that most dress codes keep you from being comfortable while learning, and last but not least do you think that mostly all dress codes are somewhat sexist? Most kids think when they are wearing what they want to wear/comfortable clothes they tend to learn better. Also, some think that dress codes are taken way too far, and if a staff member is questionable about what one is wearing then they can simply just ask them a question. It…

    Lawrence High School provides a lot of freedom for the student but there is one rule that I think is absurd and completely unfair to girls which, is the dress code. In the handbook that is handed out to every student at LHS it says “This dress code was developed with a concern for modesty, safety and the general good order of the school.” What I don’t understand is how does wearing more clothes make it safer? Also I would strongly disagree that this is modest. Yes there is a line that should not…

    Dress codes should be banned from schools because they teach students that the way they dress is more important than their education, students can miss important lessons in class because they have to change or go home, and it's not a student's fault if another student cannot concentrate because of what they're wearing. In most schools, they have unnecessary dress codes and punishments for breaking them. In the article Girls getting fed up with school dress codes that treat them as distractions…

    One of the most important values of a school is that its students are safe. Today, one of the threats to public schools is the presence of gangs.

    Fairfield Jr/Sr High School should change the dress code to be more open for students because our right to express ourselves is important, but at Fairfield Jr/Sr High School people do not have as much freedom as we want at all times during school. Everyone learns discipline, how to respect the feelings of others, and also how to live in the real world in order to be successful. Making students dress codes less strict will not only create a better learning environment, but would also help prepare…

    School just began today and it is still as messy as it was last year nothing has changed. Mrs. Alvarez (aka) Principal buzzkill doesn't care about how the place looks as long as it is still standing. I don't have a CB (current boyfriend) but I do save a seat next to me at lunch for my FB (future boyfriend) and so far no boy has even talked to me today. My best friends, Izzy and Rachel, have been with me for as long as I can remember I don't think we will ever split up. Then there’s Mariah…
