Origional Passage:
"Many students claim that requiring them to wear particular clothing
deprives them of the ability to freely express themselves through their choice
of dress. In one case, students from a Kentucky high school claimed that their
school’s dress code policy that prohibited clothing with any logos other than
the official school logo was a violation of their free expression rights. The
federal court, however, sided with the school district, finding that it had
"struck a reasonable balance" between preventing potential disruptions and
protecting students' First Amendment rights.1" (
"They say uniforms and some dress codes lessen peer pressure aggravated by
socioeconomic divisions, promote a unity of spirit and help administrators more
quickly identify trespassers on school grounds. Some school administrators say
that such restrictions help prepare students to “dress for success” in the job
market."(David L. Hudson Jr.First Amendment Scholar).
Origional Passage:
Elevating a level of pride? Really? I am sure many of you are familiar with the
phrase “clothes do not the man make.” You don’t get pride by putting on a
uniform. If that was the case, we’d have loads of prideful people in our jails.
Pride comes from within, by who you are, by what you do. Soldiers, police, and
fire professionals get pride from the job they do, not by the uniform they put
on each day.
People say that wearingschool uniform has noting to do with oride and making the school look better. People stick to the saying "clothes don't make the man."
