I am writing you a letter in regard to the school’s dress code. I believe you have done a great job at fixing certain issues within the student body. But I also believe that these rules are and have always been too strict. There is a fine line between what is considered appropriate and what is not, and the majority of the time, what is considered an “inappropriate” outfit is merely someone's day-to-day Dressing style. For example, many of the young men that roam these halls enjoy wearing tank…
I am writing to discuss the graduation rule of not being allowed to decorate caps. I believe that students should have to option to adorn caps because it is an expression ones individuality, similarity how students wear cords. While I do understand wanting to have uniformity, graduation is a celebration on ones own hard work. Most students are proud of the achievement of graduating, and would not jeopardize the ability to walk across the stage for an inappropriate cap. Many neighboring schools…
Many people believe that enforcing a dress code in school is a good idea, but students face challenges every day that prevent them from following a dress code. Students and parents believe that nothing good comes out of dress codes. Despite what people believe, school dress code can lead to bad working environments and takes away students rights. Creating a dress code, takes away students individual rights. By enforcing a dress code, the first amendment right is taken from students. The first…
Uniforms vs. Non Uniforms Over the years school has become a place of academic perseverance and the development of student’s personalities. Many students strive to achieve their own style through appearance by having an original style. Uniqueness and originality is something that students crave for throughout the different grade levels of school, especially in high school. Many students try to appeal two new social trends that would affect their placement in the school among other students. Many…
If my school considered making a change to the dress I know I would want to change. I would change many things. The reason I would want to change many things is because we don’t have enough freedom to what we want to wear. Like we are not allowed to wear hoods, hats, flip flops, and tank tops. I envision every school should consider making revolution to the school dress code . I think the schools should change it to where we should be able to wear hoods. Because it might be frigid in the…
Wearing KKK masks are inappropriate to wear in school because they can be very offensive to many people and it's also considered a sign of disrespect for the Black community. The Ku Klux Klan have brought an insufferable past and present to the dark skinned community. The Ku Klux Klan lynched and racially discriminated the Black community. Wearing the Ku Klux Klan mask is like wearing swastikas and they both have a very high connotation. Wearing the KKK mask at school can offend a lot of people…
Three years ago, my school district implemented a strict dress code. The new dress code banned many of the clothes that students had been wearing for years beforehand. This included sweatpants, graphic tee shirts, dyed hair, hooded sweatshirts, non-traditional colored and patterned pants, and many other types of dress that are often worn at most public high schools. This new dress code was highly controversial among students and teachers alike. My position was with the majority, who were all…
Dress code in my school is absolutely absurd. About a week ago I was wearing some holy jeans, and I wouldn’t even call them holy jeans. They have about two holes, one on each knee. I ended up getting dress coded and having to wear scrubs! Although before I was perfectly fine and nobody really noticed, what I was wearing. Then...The bright pink, ten sizes, too big scrubs were on what sadly had to be my legs… I felt embarrassed, like I couldn’t even focus on my school work, and worst of all I had…
would make to my school’s dress code is I would enforce uniforms. It is important to make this change because it can save parents money, no bullying over appearance, and will save students time in the morning. One reason why it is important to start enforcing uniforms is it can save parents money. No more bullying over appearance is another reason why it is important to enforce uniforms. A third reason why it is important to enforce uniforms is it will save students time in the morning. Many…
freedom, but in schools, students are put on restrictions like uniforms and dress codes. It prevents students from being able to make good use of their freedom of expression and show who they are through their fashion choices. In society nowadays, everyone loves to stress the idea of being an individual and how being different from everyone else is a good thing. If that’s true, then why promote conformity by forcing students to wear uniforms? At a time when schools are encouraging an…
