Maxi dress

"A school in which students are expected to wear standardized dress or a school uniform is an environment where administrators and teachers are sending a clear message that students need to put academics before fashion." Using school uniforms would help students focus on their grades more than their clothes. Without…

all students displayed good common sense or good taste when it came to clothing," said Bill Brousse, assistant principal Carlisle high school in Pennsylvania. In his further talk, he stated that because many students were violating the non-uniform dress code he found no other choice but to set a mandatory uniform policy for the next year. He then listed some prime examples of why measures were taken to enforce the uniform policy. "Some of it was totally inappropriate for school settings. The…

School Uniforms Have you ever heard the phrase “I would kill for those shoes”? In the mid 90s’ down in Long Beach, California students were actually taking that phrase a little too literally, they were actually killing one another for their high end clothes. The growing issue caught attention of the current U.S. President at the time Bill Clinton stated, "It's tragic when young people without a balanced upbringing, without grounded values, without a secure education, wind up believing that it's…

Have you ever thought of a better schedule for school? One that doesn't make you have too much homework. There is something called a block schedule. It involves an A Day and a B Day. Having an A Day and a B Day will help the school dramatically.You will have less homework, more time in classes, and less stress. One main reason for a block schedule is for having less homework. Studies show that having a block schedule will let you have 2 days for doing your homework. If you get homework on…

Several years ago in the United States of America, uniforms were symbolic for a higher socioeconomic status in the private sector of education. Today many public school systems across America have eliminated a dress code and are implementing uniform policies. One in five elementary schools in the United States now requires uniforms, according to The National Center for Education Statistics (“Should Schools Require Uniforms?” 7). On the contrary there has been numerous debates over whether…

In “White Tops, Grey Bottoms”, Akerman described why schools have a strict dress code which students must follow and cannot break. The writer mentioned the dress code should be accepted with not only white and grey for tops and bottoms but also a variety of colors and design (330-332). This reading reminded me of my own experience with a strict dress code. When I was a high school student, my school also had a strict dress code. For example, all students must have measured the size of their…

I think it would be the best choice for eye scanners at airports. That way people would not try to take over an airport. I would pay $79.95 dollars to go through this scanner just to be on the safe side of things. I think if they hired me to be a security guard I could take out the bad people. I would take the job. It would be a good ideal to have an eye scanner at schools so kids not get kidnapped by some freak. They should put DNA test in schools and airports also because that would keep…

introduced with the idea of solving issues with how a child dresses and many other things. But uniforms cause the same amount of problems as having no uniforms, maybe more. Most people believe that instead of having uniforms, schools should have a stricter dress code. But clothes aren’t always the problem, the problem might be that the school has they might have a terrible learning system or the teachers/administrators have much more power than needed. Uniforms are used as a way to cover up real…

express their personality and uniforms limit their ability to do this. I believe in my opinion that schools are a place for learning to be conducting. If a child wants to show off their personality then that should be saved for the weekends or on dress down days, but not regular days when learning should be the primary focus. Another may argue that bullying is still going to be a problem if uniforms are present or not which may be true. However if a uniform is implemented and policies are…

In every school there is always conformity and rebellion even though it might not involve guns or weapons of that sort. There is always a trend to how people act, dress walk and other things in school but where there is a trend there is somebody that tries to change the trend with their own trend. There is not always physical pain to the people that try to set a trend there is always people that will make fun of that person or the trend. Even though not everybody will expect the trend they still…
