    as far as the sticker, why should children (like I said)...

    Should uniforms be at schools

    First of all, I can confirm that 90% of uniform items are cheaper than standard clothes that a child might wear at a public school. as far as the sticker, why should children (like I said) be able to distract themselves from learning with commodities as such when education is already a problem in our nation, directly shown in the fact that we are forced to export jobs one because it is cheap labor and two we don't have enough local employees to fill high requirement jobs because school is so often disregarded as a child in today's new generations. Why should you care so much about dress-code if you claim to care so much about education. School is not fashion show, rather a learning environment. when we ease to view it as such, we begin to struggle (as we already have). To be fair, it's not really the dress-code's fault for these "rebellions". it is more the staff, because the allow the students to slip by rather than conforming to the rules. the way to solve this is staying conformed to the dress-code. If you teach the students that infractions are intolerable, then they are less likely to spend time in finding ways to slip by. These attempts are also distractions. All in all, a dress code creates a work-friendly environment and eliminates bullying. The end although we still have one more round Accept your defeat..... :I

    Students should wear uniforms.

    A students clothing, depending on the individual,can mean a way to express themselves, show who they are, essentially speaking without words. Most people would agree that you can tell a lot about someone by how they present themselves. this would make the choices that we make with our clothing an extension of free speech. The supreme court case Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District stated that the school did not have the right to limit the freedom of speech so long as the medium that the students are using is non violent and not distracting from the learning environment. Now even though the case was specifically about armbands that students were wearing to protest the vietnam war I believe the Idea carries over the the dress code; That so long as the student isnt wearing anything that compleatly distracts from the learning environment then they should be free to express themselves in any way they choose. The only stipulations to the freedom to wear whatever they choose the indivdual administrations of the schools are free to decide within in reason what would be considered a distraction in the classroom.

    And if the students don't pay for it, the school ends up...

    Public Schools Should not Fund School Bands.

    First of all, band is an extra curricular activity for those with interest in it. It is not a hard science or mathematics or course nor does it have the importance of one. It is very hard to make a living off of playing the clarinet, flute, trumpet, piano, etc and only a few ever become great and do make a good living off playing an instrument. Cutting funding for band would allow the school to spend that money to hire more teachers to teach worthwhile classes such as Physics, Calculus, Biology, Chemistry, Statistics, and so on and give students with promising futures to learn a much more valuable skill that could greatly benefit society a better learning environment with less students in a class and more available positions to take such a class. Band on the other hand requires that students have instruments, music books, uniforms, band teachers, etc. And if the students don't pay for it, the school ends up doing so. All of these can cost up to several hundreds of dollars per student. Playing an instrument is a hobby one does in their spare time more than it is a worthwhile trade or skill to learn while making a living like mathematics, science, language, etc and the school should have no buissness using tax dollars to fund a hobby. If school bands should continue to exist and be funded then it should be on their own accord and should either be funded by parents of the students, charities, performances, etc. The people of the United States should not be funding a hobby that is not a likely skill to need to make a living except for the exceptional few when the purpose of a school to equip and train the youth the necessary skills and know-how to become valuable members of society. While there are still crowded classes for hard science courses and mathematics or schools were such classes aren't even offered, the bands at those schools should be cut and the money should go to a worthwhile course that students have a much greater chance of taking advantage of to get into better schools and eventually earn better jobs. Band classes serve little purpose other than train students to play a noisemaker, a skill that nearly all of them will never ever need throughout their lives. Solid science and math courses should have number 1 priority and since schools across the country are having severe budget cuts one of the first things to go should be band classes in order to make sure more valuable classes are available and well equipped

    Uniforms in schools/workplaces should all be unisex/gender neutral

    So I'm going to stick to my argument and say that the companies right to choose its image is applicable to all fields. A companies image is a huge profit dictator no matter what the field and if you aren't managing the companies image it isn't your place to change it. You are at that point being paid to wear it and not be insubordinate. There is also an incredibly huge error in your argument when you mention not forcing skirts on people and then saying you're only arguing why these rules these rules should be changed not how. When, Where, Why, And how you are changing the rules is incredibly important because if you're arguing they should become the law of the land. Whatever land that may be. Now as far as the gender identity politics go there are some very obvious and important things to cover. First, There is a biological difference between men and women. I can quote endless biologists if you like but I don't think it is necessary. Next, We have to take the number of people this is effecting and the number of people it's designed to help. There are more people with peanut allergies than people bent on gender fluidity. We haven't forced peanuts from our shelves because of those people I'm not about promote the forced removal of skirts from businesses First, There is a biological difference between men and women.

If you don't like a companies image then don't work there. You will hurt more people working for more companies with mandatory legal dress code than with picky company uniforms.
