Teachers are kind, but the uniform and dress code is absurd. Every five seconds, there is a teacher commenting on your hair, uniform, or even face. Sometimes, it seems they care more about dress code than the students' education. You shouldn't feel insecure every time you wear the uniforms. No fake nails, no mascara unless you're in 8th grade, maximum of 3 braclets (including hair ties), and you are not allowed to have more than 1 ear piercing. Let girls be girls. It feels like there are rules just to have rules and to seem strict. They also banned perfume and strong cologne. You are only allowed to go to your locker 4 times a day (including before and after school). They don't allow bringing food into school for lunch or
breakfast ( including drinks). Kids shouldn't feel sexualized every time they put on a school uniform. Kids are starting to stop dressing out because of how strict the dress code is. The only things you can wear are a 6 inch shorts, sweatpants, and baggy jeans. Another thing is that they have useless classes. Technology shouldn't be a comp class and a normal class as well. Kids shouldn't feel stressed out because of a class that won't matter to them in 5 years. The bathroom rules are also strict, 1 student at a time. The teachers force you to use a planner, and they have to sign it every time you use the restroom, and you have to sign out on a sheet by the door as well. I feel like that is kind of extra giving that the bathroom is down the hall. The bathrooms don't have feminine products in the lady's room, which I feel is necessary. They don't have dividers in between the urinals in the boys' restroom, which is an invasion of privacy. You are not allowed to change for PE. Your shirt has to be tightly tucked in, and if it is not, you get a referral. If a boys hair touches their eyebrows, they have to get it cut within a week after the warning, or it leads with a demerit. Do you want every boy to have a buzzcut?! Overall, the education isn't bad. Just please let kids be kids. Not everyone is going to want to dress and look to your standards. Sorry to break it to you. I want students to feel comfortable in their school, if that means feminine products in the lady's room, or dividers between the urinals in the boys' room. Please take this into account and change some of the strict rules. read more
