In most schools the dress code for female students is very strict. To justify this dress code most people say it is to keep male students focused on school. But, why is it a girl’s job to make sure the boys can concentrate. Most times, if this dress code isn’t properly followed the girls are sent home. At what point do you take girls out of school altogether because boys can’t handle them? This is indicating to the all girls that the male students’ education is more important than theirs. This…

“I’m sorry that my shoulders and collarbones are causing people to fail their course.” Public schools are becoming ridiculous with their dress code policies. In that case, public schools should start thinking about school uniforms instead of spending their time catching students on dress code whereas the school should spend more time on student education. A former assistant principal from North Texas very well stated that she, “wished many times that [they] had uniforms,” because it was taking…

At least 90% of students wants to change rules because they are too strict. Usually rules at school are too strict and controlling and a kid can't be themselves or they get in trouble, and puts it on their record. One rule Dr. Weatherly should change its dress code because it’s unfair, and does not affect learning. They should change the rule about holes in your jeans.Having holes in your jeans does not affect students learning in the classroom . as long as it is not exposing something it…

How do you feel about school dress code? I think it’s just really unnecessary, and I think you will feel the same way after this. It doesn’t let kids express their individuality, and they don’t help your education. Also, they make public schools not really free like they should be. Hopefully schools change this policy. Kids are not allowed to express their individuality anymore(Michelle Kouzmine). The First Amendment of the US Constitution guarantees that all individuals have the right to…

Dress code is a subject that students feel should be less strict. Certain ideas and concepts pertaining to school dress code can be more lenient while still being effective. There are many unnecessary rules that could easily be fixed instead of being so forbidding. For example, the sexism and gender bias in the code is derogatory towards female students. However, it is agreed that we should have a dress code of some sort rather than eliminating it all together. Many of the girls who have gotten…

There are many schools in the U.S. that require students to dress a certain way or follow a set of rules in order to set boundaries for students and what they wear, this is better known as a school dress code, which is one thing many students feel a strong hate for. This year at my school every Tuesday and Thursday students are required to dress business professional, which I think is a bit extreme and stupid for many reasons. For the girls dress code the rules include wearing either a skirt or…

Reporter, Tara Deschamps published a report on dress codes on Toronto students. Alex Halket had never been suspended or expelled in her 14 years of being in school. Nevertheless, it came to pass when she decided to go to class in a bare midriff with sleeveless and black patterned crop top. Since then, she has not stepped in her principal’s office. Halket’s vice principal pulled her into the office and told her that the dress code was too inappropriate and looked too much like a bra. She did not…

School Dress Codes Should be Changed Throughout schools across the world, there are dress codes. Written and unwritten rules about what students around the world can and can't wear. However, many students find dress codes unfair, especially girls. We tend to feel that it limits our ability to express ourselves, the clothing is very hard to find, and causes students to be treated poorly. One of the biggest concerns for children is expressing themselves. While some children choose different…

“Dress to impress” is a very well known saying used in many particular ways. The way someone dresses is one of the first things a person notices when they first meet. For some people, fitting into a new school can be very difficult. Because of this, children try to hide their true personality by trying to be someone they aren’t. Each day, more and more schools around the world are adopting some form of dress code. Schools have the responsibility to be a safe and orderly place that maintain…

Class. Style. Everywhere you look young men and women are finely dressed with hair neatly trimmed. You’re at school and getting ready for your first class. You aren't at some rich private school. No, you’re at a common public school back in the 1960’s, where things are quite different and may take time getting used to some of the social normalities, like how to use the radical slang, and how men and women dress, in general or for school and work. Fashion and language of the 1960’s has greatly…
