O R E O
State your opinion clearly after you introduce the topic.
Dress codes are a controversial topic in schools. Some people think they limit individual expression, while others believe they create a safer and more respectful learning environment. I think schools should have a dress code policy because it promotes unity and reduces distractions caused by fashion. Having a dress code can help prevent distractions. Without one, students may feel pressure to dress to impress others, which can take away from learning. With a dress code, everyone can dress similarly, reducing the pressure to fit in. For example, many schools in Israel have a dress code policy that requires students to wear a uniform. This policy has helped create a more respectful learning environment and reduce distractions. In conclusion, schools should have a dress code policy to promote unity, reduce distractions, and create a more respectful learning environment. The benefits of a dress code policy, as seen in Israel, outweigh any potential drawbacks.
