Case Study: The Wylie Independent School

leaders should have guidelines for the students as to what is and what is not appropriate clothing

The prominent reason behind the various overdone school rules regarding dress is the loose power that administrators have been given. They have been “reserve[d] the right to determine if a clothing item or accessory is appropriate for school” (Carroll High School Student Handbook 2010-2011 18). The officials at school are using their own personal opinions to judge the students’ dress. Since styles change as time goes on, the generation in control and the

Mandatory uniform policy's measures and emphasize the benefits of students on specific behavioral and academic outcomes. The arguments for the issue are just as strong as those against the issue. There are two main points surrounding school uniforms: performance and school and reduction of violence due to uniformity.

All 71 schools within the Caddo Parish School District should be required to abide by the uniform policy that has been set by the Caddo Parish School Board for the upcoming 2016-2017 school year. Currently, 87% of the schools require their students to wear uniforms. The acceptance of this universal dress code proposal would bring equality and a sense of belonging throughout the district while increasing security measures at the nine schools who currently do not follow this policy.

Dress codes are becoming more and more popular throughout the United States; however, this does not mean all administrators agree with them. In fact, there are educators

Over the years the Pen Argyl Area school board has done some great things. In recent years though, they have been making some big changes involving the students. The dress code at Pen Argyl Area School District has majorly changed. Every year the same incident happens with a different student. They head to class with a certain item of clothing, a pair of shorts, or a wild hairstyle and then, the phone rings. Soon the student is out of class and in the office. Dress codes in school may seem like a great idea, but soon will turn into a disaster. If the dress code becomes less strict then there will be less disciplinary infractions throughout the year, it will be less cost effective for the parents when buying their children clothing, and the dress code is mainly geared towards what the girls can and can not wear.

Much of the current school uniform policy literature offers descriptions of potential strategies to achieve successful school uniform implementation. After reviewing all literature, the finding provide some support on school uniform policy and student achievement. Survey No.1, student survey indicated that combined with both schools, more girls participated in the study than boys. The results were very similar in both school results that most males and females did not agree with the uniform policy. Specifically more females, one hundred and seventy eight females overall did not agree. Students indicated that they totally disagreed with the school uniform policy because of their identity restrictions, which the school have enforce on them.

The case I chose was one that took place in Houston, TX, in the Houston Independent School District. I chose it because Houston is where I was born and grew up, and I wanted to use a case that felt close to home for me. This case was about a student who, throughout the course of about two years, displayed several signs of aggression, defiance, and general misbehavior both in class and at home. The misbehaviors ranged from “pestering and irritating” his/her siblings at home, throwing tantrums, and becoming easily upset or angered. The student also led a lonely life, both in class and school, expressing dislike and resentment towards siblings and other family members, as well as stating that student “feels student has no friends.” In class, the

When it comes to dress code, every individual has a different viewpoint for its implementation. There are clothes that could be fashionable to one person but seen as offensive to another. A dress code can be justifiable when put into a situation that really does require certain attire to be worn. It gives a sense of formality and distinguishes an individual apart from a group. This report seeks to compare and contrast the characteristics of school dress codes with that of dress codes in the workplace.

In PSD, student is expected to follow their school's individualized dress code. The school's principal determines and communicates the final decision to the student body.

Wouldn’t you appreciate that your children always know what to wear for school? School uniform is what makes it easy! A set of clothing that is mainly worn, school uniform is one of the school's policy and recommendation. Generally worn in elementary and middle school, this outfit is composed of specific colors of long or short pants and shirts for boys, sometimes with a tie. Girls usually wear a dress or a blouse worn either with a skirt or pants, all however have the same colors. This dress code determines even the type of shoes that should be worn at school. School uniform may vary from school to school, but it remains the basis dress code for the education system. The adoption of school extensive uniform mandatory has been encouraged

The adoption of this district uniform could help them to prepare the way professionals dressed.
