Twenty-four states in the United States require school uniforms. That is 48 percent, just under half of all the states. Students don't want to be dressed the same. Students should not have school uniforms because it restricts students’ freedom of expression, it may delay the transition into adulthood, and uniforms may be cheap but other clothes still need to be bought. School uniforms restrict students’ freedom of expression. When school uniforms are required students won't be able to wear what they want. Students won't be able to show what they like. Students might not want to wear the same form of clothes daily. Students will find a way to show what they like if they have uniforms which may be inappropriate, including hairstyles and piercings.
