say no to school uniforms/first impressions

i agree i think that kids who go to school should wear school uniforms the reason i to who go think that kids school should wear school uniforms cause in the morning they don't need to look for clothes in the morning and be late to school.another reason i think school kids should wear school uniform (for example) in say no to school uniforms they said as a quote people that go to school they don't need to fight over designer jackets like Louie and vatoune and juicy couture.
one question i would ask the author is why did he decide to write this story and why did he ever feel that way and if he did why didn't he include it in his story?


the reason i agree with president Clinton quote cause kids shouldn't be fighting over clothes like skinny jeans and designer jackets but sometimes i feel that president Clinton is not right cause sometimes i feel kids shouldn't wear school uniform cause they need to express themselves so they can be who they wanna be all the time. so if they want they don't have to make there mother look for their school clothes and come on do we have to wear navy blue and white i find those colors very ugly and tacky i don't like them personally...

but i think president Clinton made the right quote but i agree with his quote and his quote was i challenge all our schools to teach character education to teach good values and good citizenship.and if it means that teenagers will stop killing each other over designer jackets then our public schools should be able to require their students to wear school uniforms.he made this quot in 1996.

Incounclusion theses are the reasons why i think school kids should wear school uniforms and the reason i think they shouldn't wear school uniforms.

first impression

i think that this can support my essay cause its a uniform so everyone can be unique in there own way its a uniform everyone is wearing the same thing so it doesn't matter its a uniform.
