I have to write a stupid essay on wether or not we think school uniforms are a good choice. I'm oly in 6th grade so my teacher walked us through good reasons for having or not having them. She had an idea that its scientifically tested that people who wear uniforms are more likely to get good grades. I disaggree with that. If you wear a uniform, you are likely to be going to a private school. If your going to a private school you are more likely to have a richer family. If you have a richer family your parents are more likely to have a good education. If yourparents have a good education, they're more likely to pass it on to their kids! Isn't that true? So my teacher and anyone who testedn that is way out of their mnds right?
My reasons:
The one I said above Creativity and kindividuality ar \e not present
Didnt we fight a many wars on freedome? I actually think we fought just about every war o freedome. Is being forced to wear a certai n aryticle of clothing freedome. Comunism?

Our major public school district just implemented uniforms for all middle schoolers. Their major reason is that everyone is on a level playing field. No one can say that Joe is uncool because of what he wears or the Suzy doesn't have the latest whatever and is a loser. The major flaw in this is that there is no rule on what brand can be worn for the uniform apparel. Segregation can still take place. Another plus would be that children know exactly what they are going to wear every day. No arguing with parents about what they deem appropriate or not.

you have the freedom to have the right to have a chance at an education, no more than that. If all you can think of is spending hundreds of dollars on clothes and makeup from some magazine advertisements to be "creative and Individualistic" with the rest of your friends and millions of other little sheep aping models and making fun of those kids who cant afford it that is pretty sad. Your time would be better spent studying.
