Have you wondered who came up with uniform? I go to a school in New York City. My school is MS/HS 368 Information Network & Technology. They say it is a public school but I say, if it is a Public school why do we have to wear uniforms.”

Parents have to pay uniforms and they are high costs. My mom pays only sixty dollar for one of my school pants and I have four school pants. “Because children are constantly growing, there is a captive market for new school clothes and manufacturers take advantage.”  http://education.newarchaeology.com [1]. That’s why I think students should wear normal clothes. You could wear whatever you want and it could be any price.

Students should be able to have freedom and express themselves. I like to be myself and have fun. I live in The Bronx were people say it has a lot of volatile and bad things happening. I think that how you dress is not going to make a difference with school bullies. “School Uniforms do not cut down on bullying - No matter what you dress students in, they will always find a way to pass judgment upon their peers.” ( http://education.newarchaeology.com [2] )        

     Students should be able to wear normal clothes. People disagree with wearing normal clothes because teachers, staff and the school think that it will bring gangs to the school and fights. “There is no certainty that dress codes reduce school violence or improve academic achievement.” http://debate.uvm.edu/eesample/084.html

Public schools should not make students were uniforms because students feel abnormal; wasting money and students could not express themselves. You can solve the problem by writing letters to the Department of Education. The students could boycott by wearing uniform and go to the front of the main office. Do you want to make a difference in your school?
