Dress Codes in School

        Dress codes would also eliminate the problem of wearing hats or jackets in school. If teenagers wore jackets in school, you would not be able to tell if they were hiding something in it such as a weapon. Also if they wore jackets with hood on them, you would not be able to identify if they belong at this school or not. The incident at Korah is an example of this. At that school they do not have a dress code and a random guy walked in the girls bathroom and killed a girl. Hats in school are disrespectful and sometimes they could be worn as a gang symbol.

Lastly if kids buy uniforms they would judge people for what is on the inside rather then what they are wearing. "The dress code is one thing that has served to lower crime, violence, and increase attendance and increase learning at a lot of schools. And I think a dress code is itself an important statement, because we want our young children, whether they're poor or rich or middle class, when they're in school to define themselves primarily in terms of what's going on on the inside, not what they're wearing on the outside. And I think it's a very, very good thing," declared president Bill Clinton

        I think a dress code is a really good idea for all schools because it reduces violence and bullying, eliminates jackets and hats in school and they are inexpensive. If all the kids wore the same colours at school, it would make your school look more like an academic, working environment, and that’s what everyone wants. Isn’t it ?
