I can see the benefits of a uniform at some schools .
It puts everyone on the same playing field
and the kids who's families have means can't pick on the kids less fortunate .
they all wear the exact same thing .
Then they can concentrate on the reason they are there ,and not the fashion show .

@rckt148 As long as the uniform wasn’t ugly. No pleated skirts!

@SmartKat I always thought the girls uniforms with knee high socks was kind of sexy myself .
I seen girls roll up the waist line to make them shorter ,tie the top instead of button them .
So I am glad most schools have a dress code that require uniforms and them to be worn a certain way .
A teenage boy wouldn't get much work done with all that on his mind .

My Nephew was bullies in regular school ,now my brother is not the man to toy with especially when it comes to our kids ,he spent 18 yrs in prison ,so lets say he is not afraid to go back .
But his woman worked hard to keep the family together while he was in and out of prison ,so when her son was bullied a private school was offered to him .
Some of the kids in that school ,their families are rich ,my brother is not .
So the uniforms help him to fit in .
He looks the same as everyone else ,he is amazingly smart .
So this will keep him interested in school and living up to his potential
and not thinking of dropping out from being bullied ,he gets along good with his classmates at the new school ,he actually hated virtual school over the virus.
He and my son both missed their classmates .
And my brother won't end up back in prison for threatening a principle .
