What do u think about school dress codes

[NotYourPrincess]

Dress codes have to be put into place or girls would come looking like terrible, and guys would probably come in their boxers.

I think of it as more of an equalizer. If everyone wears the same thing, at least clothes won't be an issue anymore. We don't have uniforms at my school.

But, school uniforms are VERY costly to buy. Some schools require you to buy them directly from the school instead of from the nearest uniform supplier, which means you end up spending a bajillion dollars more than you would normally.

I personally like uniforms, though mine always makes me feel like a whale.
A good uniform can last for years too, I've had the same school jumper, skirt and jacket for three years now.

Over here in America, the uniforms they make don't last long at all. When I was little and I had to wear one once, the jacket tore into pieces after six GENTLE washings. O_o

You have a point, but no one considers thinking about the people who don't have enough money to buy brand new clothes. I just buy whatever's cheap enough; I found some cute clothes at a thrift store that you would normally have to spend fifty for at a normal store.

Dress codes can be good, but also bad. They take away our creativity and our indiviuality. But they also help in bullying. There is just one problem. No matter what school officals do, there will always be bullying.

We don't have a school uniform at my school and I guess it works pretty well.Not many people dress inappropriatly and it has cut down on the time teachers have to spend on telling students to wear their uniform correctly.
Also it allows people to express their personality more and I think it maybe makes students feel more respected therefore they respect the school more which is good.

My school doesn't care. Thank gosh. They don't care about anything, really.

i hate all dress codes because i don't want to dress like everybody else and some of the school colors look stupid together.
