uniforms and violence

Uniforms Cannot Control Violence Bomb threats, shootings, fist fights and even name calling: all of these are taking place in our schools today. School boards around the country are searching for the cause in a desperate attempt to end the school violence. Some say forcing the students to wear uniforms will do the trick. I do not think wearing uniforms will lessen school violence any more than it will win a fashion contest. Many students …

…teachers and schoolmates. I feel that the use of uniforms will strip the student body of its individuality and cause negative creativity. Students will rebel and be uncooperative in class, thus causing more on-campus violence. We need to focus on developing a better home life before we try to change the things that it effects. In doing so, that would make all the schools around the country a safer and more desirable place to learn.
