A policy that requires public school students to wear uniforms would be a bad idea for several reasons. First of all, no style of clothing looks good on everyone. Students would need to have at least two complete sets of uniforms to allow for laundering, which could be very costly for parents. Of course, since most students aren’t likely to wear their uniforms after school, parents also have to purchase everyday clothes like jeans, shirts, and skirts, adding. Moreover, during the school year students may outgrow their uniforms or other clothing, increasing the cost for some families. Finally, a uniform policy ignores families’ rights and freedom to make clothing decisions that are best for them. However, making all students dress the same says that individuality is less important than conformity. To conclude, the world already has too many followers, so public schools should allow students the freedom to express their unique personalities through their clothing.
