When
I was in Korea, our school had uniforms. Every middle schools and high schools
in Korea have uniforms, but what about Saipan? Personally, I disagree with
having uniform at SIS. Of course there are many advantages of uniforms, but,
there are more disadvantages than advantages of school uniforms.
First
of all, Saipan is too hot to have a proper uniform. If there would be uniforms,
those uniforms have to look proper, not just t-shirt and pants. I think SIS
will not make uniforms that have shirt and vest, but more comfortable one, the
collar shirts. However, in Saipan, wearing a collar shirt is too hot. Collar
shirt is made of relatively thick fabric than other cotton fabric. SIS might
set an ordinary T-shirt as uniform, but that doesn’t have any point of having
uniforms at all. Uniforms are meant to be showing uniformity and formal attitude,
but T-shirt just look like a PE uniform. Thus, it is better to not have uniform
than having improper uniform.
Second
reason of not having uniform is that students have the right to express
themselves. Students can express themselves freely through lots of ways.
Dressing is one of those ways to show who they are. This is the biggest reason
why most of the students protest against having uniform. Some students might
think that they can reform the uniform to their own styles, but I don’t think
SIS would let us do it. We have dress code, and it can be said little
conservative. I don’t think students can express freely through uniforms by
reforming it because SIS would not give students the right to be free to reform
it.
Finally,
personally, I think whenever private school has uniforms, it looks that the
school is religious school. SIS is not a religious school. In Saipan, every
private religious school has uniforms. The fact that SIS is only school that
has no uniforms among the private schools in Saipan differentiate SIS from
other schools. It makes SIS look more liberate school than other schools. Thus,
it is better not to have uniforms at SIS.
I
believe PE uniform, not just uniforms, is necessary to have for SIS students.
Since every grade has PE class, and it’s very hot out there, students might
feel comfortable if they have PE uniform.
