I dont think MJHS (soon to be Totem Middle School) should require students to wear uniforms. The reasons are that it doesnt have anything to do with learning. It doesnt let people express themselves. The kids will probably refuse to wear them. They will miss school a lot more then they do now. They will not get better grades because they will worry more about their uniforms. The parents may not want their kids to wear uniforms. The kids might not even want to come to school. They also may switch schools. The school will pay too much money and it might take out electives. The only reason some kids come to school is to go to an elective they like. Just say no to uniforms.
