Should STEAM magnet schools wear school uniforms
Quite the opposite; If, persay, you are poor, then you cannot buy good clothes, meaning you will likely be bullied, but with a uniform, it's the opposite. You wil lbe accepted.

must teacher's also wear school uniform
No, I do think there should be a dress code. No mistake. But a uniform would mean all the male teachers dressed the same, and vice versa for the female teachers. These are professionals, so they absolutely should maintain an air of professionalism, but uniforms wouldn't be in any way helpful. As far as for students, if a teacher is judging them on their fashion choices, that is a whole separate issue. But some sort of dress code should apply. Like, no ripped clothes, no underwear showing, etc.

High school students should wear uniforms.
you and me were in schools. I think that we both hated uniform. There are many problems with the uniform, because when we didn't wear, all teachers abused us, it affects to the psychology of youth. Furthermore, it is business, what I mean is that makers uniform sell us on high price, so not everyone can afford it. In anyway, youth want to buy other styled things, added to it they have to buy uniform. so it is bad for families who are financially lower. think of it!!!

Private Schools Should Have Their Students Wear Uniforms
Ok, first off, kids should be able to express their personality through their clothes. Even if its a private school, if kids don't get to dress how they want, then they might judge on something else, for example they will make fun of them for their personality. I know this first hand. I went to a private school that made us wear a uniform. For us kids it wasn't a big deal, but then as we got older it started to become a big deal. Kids would tease you for your choice of words and anything else they weren't used to. Then I went to a public school, and yes I got some dirty looks for what I wore but it wasn't as bad as getting made fun of for your personality. It wasn't just me though, my friends went through the exact same thing. We all thought the same things, it was depressing to even walk in the school. I hated it so much, but children should be able to dress how they please, because if your able to pay for a private school then you'd think you would be able to pay for some clothes that you like.

High School / Secondary school Students should be required to wear a uniform
My opponent has not provided a single compelling argument for instituting a compulsory, required by law uniform policy in all high schools and secondary schools. What my opponent does do is say that a uniform policy MIGHT enhance the quality of education. But as I pointed out, there is no study done in a controlled setting that says that uniforms will actually increase quality of education. Which means that the evidence supporting uniform policies are bogus. My opponent did not deny this claim, therefore my arguments are sustained. My opponent kept bringing up claims that uniform policies would do 'this' or do 'that', would provide 'this' kind of benefit, but NONE of the information my opponent cited actually had anything to do with supporting a uniform policy. My opponent brings up sources that say that greater focus needs to be placed on academics and then uses that as leverage for a uniform policy. But how the heck does a uniform policy have anything to do with increasing academic focus? My opponent makes no such argument. The most obvious way to improve academics is to improve the quality of education, not to enforce silly uniform policies.

Parents on welfare are more likely to need the incentives to take on the costs of sending children to school.
Parents on welfare benefits are the most likely to need the extra inducements. They generally tend to be less educated and oftentimes be less appreciative of the long-term value of education. In the late 90's, 42% of people on welfare had less than a high school education, and another 42% had finished high school, but had not attended college in the US. Therefore they need the additional and more tangible, financial reasons to send their children to school. Children living in poverty in the US are 6.8 times more likely to have experienced child abuse and neglect1. While attendance might not be a sufficient condition for academic success, it is certainly a necessary one, and the very first step toward it. Some parents might be tempted to look at the short-term costs and benefits. Sending a child to school might be an opportunity cost for the parents as lost labor inside or outside the homes (especially in the third world) the household, or as an actual cost, as paying for things like supplies, uniforms or transportation can be expensive. Around the world there are an estimated 158 million working children, who often need to work to contribute to their family's livelihood2. In the UK it is estimated that sending a child to public school costs up to 1,200 pounds a year. If they lose money by not sending children to school, this would tilt the cost-benefits balance in favor of school attendance. 1 Duncan, Greg and Brooks-Gunn, Jeanne (2000), "Family Poverty, Welfare Reform, and Child Development", Child Development, [Accessed July 21, 2011] 2 http://www.unicef.org/protection/index_childlabour.html [Accessed July 13, 2011].
