Down+with+Uniforms+-+Up+with+Freedom!

**School uniforms are not a good idea.**
** This year school shopping started out with a bang. A letter was sent to my house that said,"School Uniforms will be **

** required for all Junior High through High School students. My older sister and mom threw **

** a fit and said that it wasn't fair to the students and parents to pay for expensive **

** uniforms that they wouldn't wear any other time! It violates the right **

** to freedom of expression and is unconstitutional. Plus, there isn't a need for the uniforms **

** anyway! Our school doesn't have gangs or criminals to worry about. Besides, **

** uniforms don't even prevent cliques! There has also been a lot of bullying going around because of what some of the kids look like in uniforms and **

**after school without uniforms. Uniforms aren't helping the kids at all to learn, the only thing that they're doing is creating another thing to worry about.**
