no one can wear anything negative such as _______ neighborhood suc* or F*** on their shirts, or no certain color so there will be less gang fight

A dress code encourages students to express their individuality through personality and academic achievements, not outward appearances
A dress code puts the focus on academics, not fashion, because they project a neat, serious, businesslike image
Schools with dress codes have fewer discipline problems because students aren't distracted
Dress codes can be less expensive
Dress codes eliminate the visible differences between needy and wealthy children
Dress codes eliminate pressure to wear brand name clothing, "gang colors," etc.
Dress codes create a sense of school pride and belonging

Yes. Disneyland did not allow boys to wear jeans to the park in the 1950's and 1960's. Their belief was that boys were less likely to brawl if hey were dressed in nice clothes! The same for girls! It's 'old school'.. something that is another story.
December Starr.. THAT was very confusing!

Girls wear less, shall we say, 'distracting' clothes
