About all do, but the extent varies. Some have reasonable dress codes, while others seek to remove ALL autonomy in terms of dress and pretend everything is "disruptive." So the issue is not so much of whether there is a dress code, but how extensive.

Honor students should not be suspended nor expelled for wearing tiny nose rings or wearing dreadlocks. The school should have no right to control what someone does with their body or hair when at home. But when they forbid certain things at school, they are in effect forbidding them at home too.

It seems best for children to be around different ways of dress and different individual and cultural expressions so they won't be bullies or bigots when they are older. Yes, children should be taught to follow rules, but the rules must be reasonable and fair. Sure, life is not always fair, but we should never teach children how to add to the unfairness that already exists. Childhood is the time to express yourself.

In last year of high school, the school will generally be less bothered about students wearing their own clothing.

How do dress codes and uniforms change the way people act?

The last forty years in public education has seen many changes in school dress. Students are generally permitted in most present day public schools to choose what to wear to school with limited restraints. At the same time, as most school districts allow students all this freedom, schools are viewed by the public as a panacea for the ills of society. Schools are expected to solve all of America's social, economic, and political problems (Perkinson, 1995.) Yet with this freedom, schools are also expected to operate a well-disciplined, structured environment that is conducive to learning. The overwhelming majority of students wear jeans and sneakers in present day public schools. On warm days, many female students wear clothes that are immodest and provocative. Many students wear pierced jewelry virtually everywhere - from their eyebrows to their navels. It is not unusual for students to dye their hair pink or green or multi-colored. The disaster at Columbine High School in Colorado a year ago revealed a dress code where students were permitted to wear trench coats, excessive jewelry and make-up, and eccentric hair styles and clothing. The Columbine incident alone stimulates argument that the lack of a dress code may affect the level of safety in a school. If students were not permitted to wear coats, it would be more difficult to conceal weapons. However, a statement could also be made that the incident at Columbine High would have happened anyway, with or without a mandatory dress code for its students.
