Topic: School Uniforms
Position Paper

The topic I will be discussing is school uniforms. Some may like them and some may not. Here is my opinion. One student thinks that students in schools all over America should have the right to wear what they want to wear to school; that children should have the right to wake up and ask themselves, ‘What should I wear to school today’?

I agree with that student. I know that adults & parents are going to say that this is a bad idea because they think that they are going to have to buy their child brand new clothes. But what they don’t understand is the fact that their child already has perfectly good clothes to wear . I also have the response of one teacher from my school.
Her name is Ms. Denise (Amber Charter School’s Technology teacher.) Ms. Denise does not like the idea of not having school uniforms because she feels that the best gang to belong to is school. She also feels that if students get to wear what they want to school they will get into things that they don’t need to get into.

I understand where she is coming from, but students should have freedom, yes students have a lot of freedom but what about the freedom of dress? Another thing, a lot of teachers have said that we should keep school uniform because it is tradition (at my school) but as President Barack Obama once said: “It’s time for CHANGE”.
One last thing before I go many teachers at my school voted for Barack Obama as Presdient of the United Staes of America because he can bring change , the teachers at my school do not want to change the uniform policy; but I hope the teachers at my school take this change into consideration .
