One of the most impeding questions in almost every high school is should they have uniforms. There are many different opinions on the subject as well as a vast variety of pros and cons both for and against uniforms. As for me personally, I would not mind if our school were to get uniforms.
Many people may disagree in saying that in having uniforms, the administrators would be taking away from the students' individuality and uniqueness. However, I believe the complete opposite. By having uniforms, everyone would look the same, thus resulting in less bullying due to a certain outfit. As a female high school student, I am judged a lot more by what clothes I am wearing as opposed to what classes I happen to be taking. By adding uniforms, the judgments would not be as prominent in the schools due to clothes and who is wearing what name brand.
Also, by having uniforms the school is not taking away a student's individuality. They will be more likely to focus more on school if they are not constantly thinking about what they are wearing or the fact that so and so looks so much better than them. Students, mainly the females as we tend to be the ones to stress over these kind of things more as opposed to males, would focus on the current classes they are taking as well as the homework, projects, etc. In addition, there are ways to work around looking the same every single day. The administration could make every Friday casual day, where no uniforms need to be worn, or make it so that the girls have to wear just black shoes, but give no real restrictions on the type of shoe, thus providing more ways for the students to express themselves through their clothes, without having to worry about wearing a different outfit every day.
Therefore, I believe our school should enforce having uniforms as it would make a girls life in particular much easier and allow them to focus on school more instead of the outfit they have on and how it compares to everyone else.
