school. First of all, it saves time. I don’t have to spend time picking out my
clothes every morning. Wearing a uniform also saves money. It’s cheaper to
purchase a new uniform than to go out and buy lots of school clothes. In
addition, I don’t have the pressure of keeping up with the latest styles. Most
importantly, wearing a school uniform gives me a sense that I belong. I really
think that it adds to the feeling of school spirit and community.

2.) There are many reasons why I am against wearing a
school uniform. For one thing, I don’t like they style of the uniform. The navy
blazer and plaid skirt are too
conservative for me. Secondly, the uniform isn’t

a jacket. Finally, I want the freedom to express my individuality through my
style of dressing.
