Title: School Uniforms Should Not Be Required
Some parents and teachers think that letting kids wear what they want is a recipe for trouble.
Without uniforms, they say, kids will focus on clothes instead of schoolwork. There will be
pressure to buy expensive clothes, which many families cannot afford. For these reasons, some
people insist that uniforms are necessary.
Should school uniforms be required? Some parents and educators say that uniforms help
students focus on academics instead of fashion. Others believe that kids should have the
freedom to choose what they wear to school. After considering both sides of the issue, I strongly
believe that uniforms should not be required in school.
For all of these reasons, school uniforms should not be required. Kids would have an opportunity
to choose what to wear while adults would have an opportunity to set limits. Now do you also
think school uniform should be required?
I disagree. There will always be distractions. Kids should be encouraged and trusted to focus on
their schoolwork, or they will never learn to be responsible. Uniforms are not free. If families are
spending money, they should be able to choose the clothes they buy. Also, uniforms interfere
with self-expression. Requiring uniforms sends a message that all kids are the same. If schools
want kids to be themselves, they should not force all students to dress alike.
