<p>So my school district sucks right now. They just made a new dress code that bans any shirts with pictures or words, no hoodies, no coats or jackets, and no piercings besides the ears, and some other stuff. Was almost about to ban jeans and flipflops too.</p>
<p>And they've been considering a uniform for at least a year, and are planning to put one in next year.</p>
<p>I guess it's better than what you'd have to wear at a private school though. But it still sucks.</p>
<p>No hoodies, coats, or jackets? The hell?</p>
<p>hm. sounds pretty reasonable to me, except maybe the hoodies bc even at my school with a uniform we can wear sports sweatshirts (ordered through the school)</p>
<p>i actually like my uniform, i think it's mildly cute and just much easier than picking out an outfit everyday
i wouldnt like it if we didn't have a uniform but had a really strict dress code, bc then i'd still have to buy a lot of clothes that fit the dress code PLUS clothes i actually like etc to wear on weekends</p>
<p>with a uniform i only have to buy like 3 uniform skirts, 12 or so uniform blouses, knee socks, etc for school and then w/e i want for weekends breaks and what not</p>
<p>That's the same dress code they had at my middle school. Except there were other things to like you had to wear a belt etc.</p>
<p>i go to a private school and there's no dress code</p>
<p>I hate uniforms, and dress codes are kind of subject to the teacher. I'm okay with the one at my school though. It's pretty loose.</p>
<p>I like our dress code. I work well and feel smart when I'm dressed like a professional.</p>
<p>In first and fourth quarters, we can wear polos and shorts. Otherwise, it's:</p>
<p>-oxford shirt plus either tie or jacket OR sweater
-dress pants</p>
<p>Not too hard really. The girls can get away with whatever they want. Their only real rule is no denim of any kind.</p>

I don't tink I'd be able to stand that. I wear jeans basically everyday.</p>
<p>^ No denim? I'd move</p>
<p>Mine was pretty basic:
Nothing above fingertips
No string tank tops
no midriff</p>
<p>Though these were rarely enfoced. Our school administrators/teachers were a bit on the horny side</p>
<p>I went to an all-guys school...and we had to wear a dress shirt and tie all year and khakis...blazers from October to April (November-whenever you realized your teachers didn't care for seniors). Heck somedays during my last year I just wore a zip up turtleneck thing and nobody cared.</p>
<p>But then, we also had free dress days pretty much every Friday starting in my junior year, which was nice.</p>
<p>My public school's really liberal about dress code in general, but some teachers are picky. The actual rules say nothing super-short or low, no tummy exposed, and no spaghetti-strapped tank tops or halters. Too bad it's rarely enforced...</p>
<p>my school is private and has a uniform. a polo/oxford shirt with the school emblem and chino pants ( i get them from American Eagle), belt, dress shoes. it's not too bad.</p>
<p>Why no denim? What, is denim explosive or something?</p>
<p>My school's dress code isn't too bad. The only rules I have a problem with are no tank tops, halter tops, and flip-flops, but no one really pays attention to the flip-flop thing.</p>
<p>What's up with no flip flops? Do people get turned on by the sight of bare feet? I don't get it.</p>
<p>i think it's because of the possibility of like people stomping on your feet if the halls are crowded,etc. although i guess foot fetishes could also be a problem lmao</p>
<p>Yea, my school used to have a normal dress code (for public school standards). But there's been a push for uniforms lately. In ohio though, you can't have uniforms unless you tell the people 6 months before school starts, so they just made a strict dress code.</p>

That's a ridiculous reason to ban flip flops. It's almost like banning pencils because if you drop one and try to catch it, you can stab yourself with them pretty badly. (I've done that. My hand bled for like 5 min nonstop. From a PENCIL!! >.<)</p>
<p>ouch .</p>
<p>oo, yea that does hurt! Anyway... ours is pretty good no halter/spag. strap tops, sleevless must be so many fingers wide (like 3 I guess). Jeans can't have holes above the knee, shorts/skirts of appropriate length. Shirts with sayings in question go to principal. And our principal's personal favorite to bust is when guys jeans sag so much you see more boxer than anyone cares to see. (It's kinda funny, he'll chew a kid out for something & the last thing he'll say is, 'oh, by the way, pull up your pants')</p>
