Chalk Talk: School Issues: School Uniforms
Schools’ decision to use uniforms often evolves into a hotly contested debate. On the one hand, if students all dress alike, they have less opportunity bully each other on their personal styles or feel peer pressure to dress a certain way; also, having uniforms is beneficial for economically disadvantaged families and students. Schools also don’t have to worry about students wearing distracting or inappropriate clothing. On the other hand, students are taught to express themselves as individuals, and severely restricting what students can wear greatly hampers this ability. If students are required to wear uniforms, parents should encourage their children to express themselves as much as they can in different ways. Many schools that have uniforms mandate that minimal jewelry be worn, but if this is not so, students can use jewelry (of the appropriate variety) to show their personal style. They may also choose different hairstyles. Parents should encourage students to choose their own backpacks, lunchboxes, and folders, as these act as personal accessories.
