The school I work at brings up Mandatory school uniforms at every administrator's meeting. They say that it would dissolve all cliques in schools and would eliminate a lot of problems. Girls would not dress too slutty, and guys would not wear phallic imagery shirts.

Girls would wear a matching skirt of at least knee length and a white blouse.
Boys would wear black pants, black dress shoes and a white long-sleeve shirt.

I know what I think, but I am waiting til someone else says something.

Do you think that schools should implement a mandatory school uniform policy?

I tihnk that school uniforms in public schools should be absolutely outlawed! They say that it will put the poor and rich kids on even ground, but it won't. The not-popular kids don't have freinds because so many of them don't wash and are social retards anyway. They wear dirty clothes, they smell or they are bodily or facially ugly. Putting them in a school uniform wil not make them hang out with Cliff Vanderbilt III, the quarterback.

Thier clothes will still be dirty, they will still stink, and they will still be ugly or nerdy or WHATEVER under the sun it was that made them unpopular in the first place. They STILL won't play sports and if they do they will probably not be any good at it.

Unfortunately, this is what young ppl look at when they determine who will be popular. they don't look at what is on the inside, they look at who is pretty or who can play sports the best or who drinks the most after school. The adults in our school districts think that all young people look at is clothes, but it goes much further than that.

Plus I hate the orwellian "big brother" thing going on with the school uniforms and everyone looking the same... c'mon, that's horrible some people need to express themselves!!!

Yeah that's pretty gay.

Anyway I don't wear our uniform more than once a week cause all you get if you don't wear it is a "uniform slip". A peice of paper. No other consequences.

i voted no, but i'd still agree with some sort of dress code.

Seeing guys with shirts that say "hank's Weiner stand - 'Straight up!'" and "Steel Erection Company - 'whatever it is, we'll get it up!'" that stuff is old now, and teachers and other faculty here don't like it. I don't really care one way or another except that it's passe now.

This is not a private school either. It's the ONLY school within it's district and its a PUBLIC school. But, yeah, if kids want to segregate they will always find SOMETHING to do to show off. like Doc marten's shoes instead of Wal-Mart brand or something. It's just a dummo idea IMO.

you're right, children sohuld be seen , not heard and NOT spoiled or raised by the TV. Here's what I say: seen and not heard, but still nurtured."

the whole thing comes from women having too much choice in things, if they hadn't been all "liberated" and going out for full-time jobs, they would still be at home where they belong, doing women's work and raising children. That's what it supposed to happen.

I'm serious.

HEAR HEAR!!!

The bible says: Proverbs 13:24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

Now, sinc parents are only 16 years old, they remember not liking being swatted, so they don't do it to thier kids. Plus Dr. Spock says not to spank kids cause it'll warp thier personalities.
