Below is a letter written to the editor who wrote the article 'Enforcement of dress code creates negative effect' that your blogged about last week. Most of you wrote on your blog that you agreed with the writer. What are your thoughts after reading the letter below and seeing a different perspective. Are they the same? Are the different? Do you agree? Disagree? Explain yourself.


I think these point are very valid. The above argument is a good one, and I completely agree that future places will hold much higher expectations for students. With that being said, I still do believe that high school students should have a say in the clothes they wear. Although some of these things are deemed as inappropriate, students, especially girls, should not be treated as children. There is a time when one will have to act professional, and be very uptight about the clothes they wear to their job. but it's not the real world yet in all honesty. Let kids be kids, and leave the administration out of it.

I think there is a bigger reason or picture for why this is occurring but these are girls many years away from bigtime jobs... some more years that others...

I stick with my first opinion that the school shouldn't monitor clothing even if they do for teachers.
