What Do You Think About Public School Dress Code?

If you are easily distracted and can't keep your mind off of your clothes or others thats YOUR PROBLEM. You have a very low attention span, and won't be able to survive in the real world anyway.
But your "we're there for an education, not what to wear" is EXACTLY RIGHT!
In proving MY point!
We're in a "free" country! Our schools are governments run! The school making you wear a uniform is taking away your personal freedom!
People look different, and dress different in the real world. There are distractions in the real world. Pretending thy aren't realy isn't going to help, it's going to hurt.

the bottom line is your going to school to learn not to show off your body parts and me as a student i realize i have the right to not have to see your body parts hanging out of your clothes like just last year before my school got dress code a young lady bent over a teachers desk and one of her breasts fell out of her shirt being that this is a free country I beleive I should have the freedom not to have to see a girl being revealed in the middle of a test.

LOL. I'm just sorry that the kids thought it was OUR idea! I at no point wanted to dress my kids up like little geek boys or spend money on these awful clothes when they have perfectly good ones at home.

yes! that is so true..i go to a catholic school. it SUCKS!! we have a lame ass dress code. and i hate it, im writing an essay on dress code and i found this....

My High School decided to whip up SMOD (uniforms) this year without enforcing the dress code in previous years. l can't seem to find any logic or reason behind it which just seems a bit ridiculous all in all.

DRESS CODE SUCKS.

I DONT CARE. T_T

We have a dress code at our school. I think uniforms should be worn at all schools, to help with learning, and bullying. I am always bullied for my clothes, not having designer clothes and all. If we all have uniforms I can't be teased for such a thing. I hope you feel the same way :)

I've been in both situations with wearing uniforms and not wearing uniforms...I personally go with either one. It just depends on the schooling that the parents have had, and it also depends on what school the parents think is best for their child. I personally like the idea of uniforms because it makes getting up in the morning so much easier than not having uniforms, plus you don't have to deal with the little Ambercrombie and Fitch bitches that want to dress real slutty...Everyone looks the same in the uniforms which makes the teachers lives a whole lot easier especially for field trips and other activities.
