How much time do you spend picking out what to wear to school each morning? If you wear a uniform, probably not much. Should more schools require them?
Supporters of uniforms say they keep kids focused on schoolwork, not clothes. Some people think uniforms cut down on bullying too. They say students are less likely to be teased when everyone wears the same thing.
But other people say uniforms stop kids from showing their personalities. Plus, uniforms can be expensive. Buying all the shirts, pants, or skirts can cost up to $500.
