Looking for opinions on school uniforms for public school.

BULLSHIT

I think uniforms in public school is a great idea.  Lets make our public schools more about learning and less about social fads.  If there were uniforms at Columbine, there would not have been a trenchcoat mafia.

T-shirts, jeans, sneakers, tube tops and other casual wear which is totally inappropriate for a learning environment.  Playclothes should be for playtime, not school.  I think it is disgraceful the way the public school students are dressed.  They should have a dress code.  Shame on the lowlife parents who think that it is acceptable to send their children to school dressed like sluts and slobs.  In the workforce you will need to wear a uniform or at least conform to a dress code.  But the public school caters to the lowest common denominator and prepares children for low-level jobs, jail and rehab, while the private school prepares superior students to be high achievers and have successful careers as CEOs, doctors, lawyers, etc.

Face it, there are highly motivated public school students in the wealthy districts who do ok.  But generally the public school is for the students who aren't motivated, well-behaved or intelligent enough to be accepted into a private school.

I'm actually not  very conservative, but i think the idea of having the dress code/school uniform at public school at least deserve the attention. I don't want to say about the difference of parent's income of public schools students, it's evident and everyone knows about it, even our kids... But i personally prefer to send my kids to the "uniform' public school. Ideally it would be great to have 4 days in uniform and 1 day in regular clothing. even for us, parents it will be more easy to take care of kid's clothing. Having 4 uniform pants/skirts and 4 shirts just for school from the Children's Place or GAP for $200-$250...why not? Leave the North Face, Spyder, D&G, Chanel, Christian Dior Stuff for out of school time.
