Summary/Direct Quote
SUMMARY: Uniforms eliminate many of the things that distract students from their education. When you take away all of these distractions that's more time focused on your school work.

QUOTES: Schools report that when students dress in "work clothes" rather than "play clothes" they take a more serious approach to their studies.

Some students have turned school into an unending fashion show. This disctracts from learning, as some kids spend more time focused on thier clothes than on homework.

School uniforms stress that individuality and self-expression are not determined by designer clothing or the latest fashion fad.

Educators argue that an academic program encouraging students to pursue individual thought is much more important than what they wear. They inhibit creativity and self-expression, forcing students to conform.
