Uniforms Restrict Freedom of Choice
I think that requiring students to wear a school uniform in public elementary school is wrong.
I attend Cielo Vista Elementary School in Rancho Santa Margarita and am in the sixth grade. I recently viewed the proposed new uniform for my school. I have concluded that wearing a school uniform takes away my freedom to choose how I dress. If everybody tells you to be original and not to copy others, then how can this happen if everybody is wearing the same outfit?
Let me make my own decisions about how I dress as long as I follow the school dress guidelines.
