her own parents do not recognize. When we are placed within a small group of individuals we often find ourselves, or change into the person we wish to become. Because the plastics lack within- group diversity, they are all expected to act the same, dress the same on certain day, and even think the same. When these types of things are implied, and forced upon, we find that many times we lose a since of our individuality. When Cady tells the girls she is considering joining the mathletes they tell…

The debate on school uniforms has been ongoing in the United States since the mid-1980s. Long Beach, CA was the first community to create a district wide uniform policy in 1994.
