Reply #27: Apples and oranges - not for uniforms but am for a respectable dress code

[Deja Q]

Lord knows how much worse it is now than it was in 1987, but I saw some stuff as a middle-school kid in the late 80s that shouldn't have been allowed anywhere, it was so uncouth.

I'm not all-out for uniforms, but there should be a "respectable dress code". That way you get some freedom to still be who you are and not resort to outfits of a fascist nature, which is the extreme of the opposite end of the spectrum. I despise uniforms.

Having qualified teachers is a different issue entirely.
