Wearing Uniforms in High Schools

 

I support the ideas of wearing uniforms and following the dress code. There are a spectrum of advantages for these standards. Firstly, the school can create a good atmosphere for learning. Also, students might view uniforms as work clothes and take the school more seriously. For schools, wearing uniforms not only instills unity and pride but promotes school spirit and good self-image. What’s more important, uniforms make students look equal which break down the barriers between different socioeconomic groups. Furthermore, students’ wearing with low- fashion sense are usually mocked at by the fashionable ones, so I think that wearing uniforms can decline the possibilities of bullies. Besides, it probably solves gang problems because students will behave more cautiously wearing school uniforms.

 

From the perspectives of students, some are proud of their schools and some gain a sense of security by wearing uniforms. You might state that some low- ranked schools’ uniforms, ugly uniforms and worn-out ones will easily be biased. As the matter of fact that students stay at school mostly, at least they will feel at ease entering the gate. My suggestion is: No one will look down on you unless you look down on yourself first.  Just embrace it!

 

The most crucial reason to wear uniforms is that it is economical. For girls who often lots of time deciding what to wear and parents who worried about the expense of clothes, it is a good choice.

 

Dress code is something related to uniforms and catch students’ eyes.

I was studied in a high school for girls, which institutes various dress code in a strict way. One of my friends always tried hard to disobey the dress code by wearing colorful socks or tight-fitting pants to show her style.

Recently, there was news that students in Kaposvar University in Hungary protested against the dress code by wearing underwear to courses.  

In my opinions, I don’t totally agree their actions because dress code is a necessary norm to make people fit the society and identify their roles.

 

In the early times of America, people thought that wearing uniforms violated the spirit of freedom. However, due to economic depression, parents stand out and support the ideas of wearing uniforms. Also, selecting the styles, colors and patterns of uniforms may be a hot subjects among students.

 

In fact, there are more and more schools in America start to take the measures of wearing school uniforms.

“A shirt, tie and blazer may not be the ingredients for my favorite outfit, but if I were given the choice, I wouldn't throw away the idea of school uniform.” Said Chloe Spencer, a 15-year-old American student.

 

Claire Howlette, an English teacher, agrees: "Uniforms give students a sense of belonging to a particular school and create an identity for the school in the community."

 
To conclude, wearing uniforms and following dress code have nothing to do with restraining creativity but produce a new way of life.
