Others should agree as well. PA public schools should not be required to wear uniforms. Uniforms cause a lack of freedom of expression. With wearing clothing of our own choosing, comes a way to express ourselves and our personalities “Since clothing is considered an expression of identity or religious belief, mandating school uniforms is considered a violation of students' right to free expression”. (“Point: The High Cost of School Uniforms”).
There is no doubt that children can learn even if they dress as they want. The question not addressed is to what extent fashion, and the tendency of moden children to focus on fashion, distracts from the academic program. This issue is generally avoided by those who argue that dress is unrelated to academics. High cost The economics of school uniform is hotly debated. School uniform was in part adopted by some American schools so children would not try to outdo each other with highh-priced designer clothes.
Landon Stewart Mrs. Luker Government A4 10/23/12 Cons of School Uniforms There are many schools in the U.S. that require their students to wear uniforms, and there are more that don't. I believe that school uniforms should not be required for a few reasons. Uniforms take away from a person's individual identity and freedom to express himself or herself. They can be costly to people depending on a family’s financial status. School uniforms can also be a very uncomfortable fashion that students would not take a liking to.
It would be a shame to let these opportunities for the students to lessen. Closing the high school would hurt the community especially the parents. The parents will have to send their children to other schools because parents will seek better opportunities in other school. Students from Bryant are involved in school activities and

Historically uniforms have portrayed indifference between countries specifically in war, to mark foe from friend which nowadays marks the difference between us and other schools. Not only do we have to put up with a stolen identity but also have to bear its uncomfortable and ugly nature. They say ‘’we are promoting school unity’’ but I believe it is instead robbing us of our own social identity. As a consequence of this the ideals and values of the student is blatantly rejected. In order to promote a fairer and free country we must be rid of uniforms and youth social groups should be considered equal in views and opinions to the older generations.
But when a school system puts uniforms into place, and then makes you wear a certain color shirt because of you grades, that's just asking for more bullying and fights. I'm really trying to understand their thinking process on this issue. Maybe they figured, if you're in the lower grade color, you will start trying harder. It's a concept that I believe is completely wrong, but it's the only reason I could think of on why they would do this. I really don't believe that I could ever grow to like this concept at all.
Having a mandatory uniform limits teenager’s creativity and their expressive side. Lastly, the uniform can be harmful to schools image because some schools may have nicer uniforms than others causing other schools to envy them and not feel equal and uniforms are all about making everyone equal.

Dear Principal, Would it be fair if an A student, were to receive the same grade as, a D student? If you were to change the grading policy this would make parents and students frustrated. The grading policy should not be changed because students would not know their exact grades, their GPA, and high performers would earn the same grade as low performers. I don’t agree that you should consider a new grading policy that replaces letter or number grades because it will not benefit the school community. The first reason the grading policy should not be changed is students/parents would not know their exact grade.
First, mandating uniforms in public schools can prevent kids from getting bullied. Bullying is a big issue in schools nowadays. Kids can be so critical when it comes to judging others. Kids will judge other kids by what they’re wearing, if kids don’t wear certain brand names they’re not considered part of the cool kids and they will exclude them from their group. Kids who wear uniforms don't have to worry about what people think about their outfit and they can focus more on their studies and schoolwork.
