This is really starting to get on my nerves. I want to know who is going to pay for the extra clothes my child is going to have to wear ONLY to school now. With the economy going haywire, gas prices & electricity rising on a daily basis, what else can Pitt County do to screw up?? I mean the police department can't do anything about the rising crime in this city, but yet to help crime we have to provide school unifoms because thats going to make everything better. WOW what a great county. Beaufort county tried this a few years ago and it didn't work, they ended up having to change the colors too. Lets see how well this is really going to work.

As for the girls ~ Now your the beauty of your face, smile, eyes and personality can sparkle! * Parents will save money in the long run. Some students have way too many clothes, especially girls! * It really will be less stressful in the morning getting dressed. No more stressing about how this color or top looks. You will save time! So many other great points have already been addressed. I think this will be a very positive move for Pitt County! They should have done this a very long time ago!

And honestly I think that uniforms are not gonna stop gang activity because students are gonna still come to school talking about Eastside and Westside all day and all that stuff,and people will still come to school and pick on other people uniforms are not gonna change that or any of the other problems teens go through!!! Well I'm gonna wear my uniform and make it look good because I cant change a thing about it!!!!

So making us wear uniforms dosent make a differnce,also you are going to bring out some bad arguments over uniforms,lastly uniforms are stupid stupid stupid!!!!!!!!!!!!!! making students wear uniforms is really stupid the reason why is because when you make us wear uniforms we can still pick because their pants could be to small,or they have ugly shoes.

We have to wear khaki or navy slacks :P (puke) and khaki navy or dark denim skirts that are below the knee and solid colored collard polo's and no flip flips or any between the toe shoes at all. Now most polo shirts these days run at like $25 and slacks around $50 and i have to go to a bigger city an hour away to be able to get them. I am a freshman and i have to buy them on my own and it kinda sucks saving up all summer just to buy some shirts and slacks you don't like to wear. Most my other shirts are around $10 and my pants $20, so ya. When getting ready for school it takes me two hours total. That includes eating, make up, hair, clothes, and feeding my animals. When i'm just getting ready to go to a friends house i do the same amount of stuff and it takes me 45 mins. so, i'm just saying, i don't like it. Espesially sence the men in our school get to wear jeans and we don't :@. sincerely judy my school has a dress code and i don’t like it because the clothes required are more expensive and hard to find.

I have currently been given the information about the new uniform policy for next year and I have certain mixed emotions about the situation. I understand the safety issue behind the new policy and i do agree with why that should be altered, but i also feel that our rights as an individual are being shattered. If our current dress code policy was enforced here at school then most of the issues with our attire would be a completely different conflict. I must admit that there will be specific aspects of school uniforms that will be better for us in the end, but i can also state that i am not looking forward to being just another white collared shirt in the hallway. I feel that school already limits our inner talents as is, and now their looking forward to cutting off all of our ties to succeeding as an individual. Simply put, I am very excited of being just another number in the system. Sincerely, 961085 Hi, my name is Heather and i attend North Pitt High School.

ALso guys can still wear their pants half off..... a different pair of pants is not going to stop that .....teachers need to reinforce the rules about the dress code...but they also need to know that the kids who are troublemakers and want to be in gangs are not going to listen......in my opinion the rules should be harsher..but its not fair to take our rights away..... i like having my own sence of style .....thankx My name Is Teadria Neal and I do not think that the uniforms are going to help anything…..people are still ganna get picked on…even though everybody is still wearing the same clothes…people will find other ways to talk about each other ..also its not ganna stop the gangs either.. i mean they can always say that orange is the new red… i think uniforms are just a way to take away our rights as students…..its nice to come to school and be able to have your own sence of style.

It's not goin stop gang violence b/c people still gon be throwin up dey sets so it really doesn't matter. Even if we do have them it's not gon to make less problems I think it's going cause more problems. If you already don't do your work in class what makes you think that uniforms is going to change that. The same people gon get picked on and uniforms isn't going to change that either. If you spend alot of money on your clothes it isnt fair that you can't wear them just b/c some people don't follow the dress code. It doesnt make since that we can't even have more colors to wear as far as our uniforms. I mean my favorite color is pink why can't I wear dat I mean dats my favorite color an dat aint even fair.
