School uniforms a bad ideA!!

" When we lose the right to be diferent, we lose the right ot be free. "  (Charles Evan Hughes, Supreme Court Justice.) Most teens want to wear the "coolest" clotHhes, and shoes. Clothing is a big part of part for a teens search for identity. The Board Of Educucation is Making all students in the U.S wear uniforms. In a school, you should be able to express your opinions and dress how you want to dress. Kids want to be able to dress in designer clothes. Kids want to be able to to express themselves and think outside the box. Last, Parents might not be able to afford the uniforms.

Kids wouldn't be able to dress in the "cool" designer clothes. You can't  wear designer clothes and name brand clothes if you have a specific uniform that you have to wear. If you like to designer clothes you wouldn't be able to wear clothes like UGGs, Nikes, Hollister you would have to wear a uniform. Kids like clothes that are in-style , popular, and sometimes expensive. One thing is that some kids that don't have that much money might feel self consience against themselves. Having a uniform eliminates your choice of clothes. Kids like to wear expensive things and i don't think it's fair for them to not have the right and choice of wearing a uniform.

Most students like to express themselves and their style. If they wear uniforms everyone would blend in. In school we were taught to be individuals and to stand out. If we dress how we want to dress we can learn other peoples taste in style and their cultural backround by how they dress. Some people might say everyone should be dressed in uniform to look professional and so kids don't get distracted. If everyone dresses appropriately then we should be able to wear normal everyday clothes. Students should be able to wear what they want so they can express themselves.

The economy isn't the best right now and some parents may not be able to afford much things like uniforms for their child. If everyone has a uniform some of the students parents may not be able to buy the uniforms and clothes for outside of school. Parents might not afford to buy both uniforms and clothes. a lot of parents have gotten laid off and to have uniforms is hard because they might not have the money to buy it. People might say they're not expensive but when you think about it it is expensive to buy uniforms and outside clothes. The expense of a uniform is hard to afford. The economy isn't so great and parents might not have a lot of money.

In all schools students should be able to express their opinion and show off their style. Dressing in designer clothes, Expressing your style, opinion, and economic problems is hard on the parents and they wouldn't be easy for people. It is unconstitutional to take away the students right and freedom of speech.
