My Opinion about "Academic Dress"

Honestly I don't think that you should be able to tell high school kids what to wear to school. When you are in high school it is all about being an individual and part of that is being able to wear your style of clothing. If you are following the current dress code and your outfit is not inappropriate than I do not understand what the problem is. This "Academic Dress" will not make students act better, or make them get to school on time. This is just your way of trying to make our school look alot better than it really is. I really don't care about the "Academic Dress" because I am graduating this year, but I can definately see why every high school student here would be really mad! It is not fair for you to tell high school students, some of whom are 17, 18, even 19 years old. Everyone here is close to being an adult, if they aren't already. I don't think that "Academic Dress" is cheaper either, because now you have to buy all new clothes just for school. Is the school going to pay the cost for everyone here to buy all of this clothing? What is the point? This in my opinion will create more problems than you think. Not only will there be more students out of school, but it will make some students more angry to be here. If there is only one way that you can dress coming to school, then there is going to be alot of students not following this and they will be sent home and possibly suspended. Is that your goal? Do you want to have half the school out because they didn't wear a belt one day, or didn't wear the right color shirt? Are you serious? It is not a good idea, but again that is just my opinion. Sorry underclassmen it sucks for you and I do feel bad for you!!
