School Uniforms
by Mary O Dell
Are school uniforms a good idea for public school students? Absolutely, and students should be required to wear them. Uniforms
get rid of the distractions of designer clothes so students can concentrate on their studies. Uniforms also create an environment
in which students will be judged on personality rather than fashion. Finally, uniforms save money and time.
While attending a private school, I was mandated to wear uniforms, and it was a pleasure. We had many students from all walks
of life. As soon as the bell rang, however, our economic advantages or disadvantages were no longer obvious. We were able to
concentrate on history and math instead of fashion and style. Aptitude and attitude were more important than my clothes.
