SCHOOL UNIFORMS

The purposes of wearing school uniforms are to further develop a safe academic environment and to enhance equality of dress and self-respect.  School uniforms provide students with a school identity and strengthens school and individ­ual spirit and pride.  Instead of feeling disconnected from school, students enjoy a sense of belonging.  Students with uniforms view school as a workplace for teaching and learning.  It is not seen as a battleground, playground, or fashion stage.
