Reflection paragraph on sources

I use five good websites and they gave me lot of information on my reasearch. All my website was pretty useful. One website told me stories about dress code in diffrent states. My websites were very trust worthy. The website i use the most was very bias about baggy pants.

Reflection paragraph on process

Reasearching the dress code was a good thing to reasearch because it's something i always argue about and needed to learn more about. My topic was easy except when i come across a question that i didn't have a answer for or enough information. I had fun learing about the dress code and posting videos and reading other peple story about dress code. I didn't like some of the stories i read and some questions were kind of  hard to reaseach. Next time i know to pick easy topic to reasearch on.

Reflection paragraph on findings

Reasearching my topic help me understand dress code better. I agree with half and half with the dress code The three question i answer was good question and very important issue in my school. I reasearch why dress need to be reconsider? I got a lot of answer and learn some things i didnt know. I still think dress code is getting out of hand at my school we don't have gangs like schools in california. One of my questions was why do we have to wear our shirt tuck in our pants? Personally i think it's a crazy rule that make us look crazy. In article it said guy s wear their shirt and make them look nice I dnt agree with that at all. Another question was why the dress code so strict i got some good answer back. In one article people in new york had strict dress code because students who dress in baggy pants always got in trouble i agree with them. My last question was student s should not wear baggy pants. I got a lot good answer. One article said students who whore baggy pants didn't do good in school and always stayed in trouble. I agree with that but i learned a lot about dress code by reasearching question it also help me understand my school dress code.

Why student's should not wear baggy pants #3

I agree with the school officals about baggy pants. I think baggy pants make the males look bad and why would you want people to see you boxer. Baggy pants is not cool at all and i think it's a shame to america. When wear baggy pants you can barley walk at all down the hallway or where ever you going. This is the only rule i agree on baggy pants should be cut out for good.

Why do we have tuck our shirts in #2

In 10th grade last year all boys had to tuck their shirts in last year. I don't think it right because girls didn't have to tuck their shirts in at all they could have wore long shirts. When the boys did shirt in it made them look just like a clown in school. here again the school making up another crazy school rule that didnt make no sense at all. I just don't get at all some dress code are just getting out of hand.

Why the dress code so strict #1

The dress code be strict since i got in 9th grade. I agree with them with baggy jeans it make young adults look bad. but all the other dress code rules are getting out of hand. Now we can't wear holes and our pants holes in our pants are not hurting anybody at all. We can't wear certain kind of shirts to school the dress code is just out hand. school board need to give the students a little bit of freedom.

Quote #5

School district officials on Thursday decided that cheerleaders can be exempted from a new ban on short skirts for female students, allowing them to wear their cheerleading uniforms on game days. The new dress code for schools in the Orlando suburb prohibits sexually suggestive clothing and requires that dresses, skirts and shorts be at least mid-thigh or below in length. The new measure was passed in June.

Quote #5

In this passage district officals don't want cheerleaders to wear short skirts anymore. I think they should just leave it alone it nothing wrong with cheerleaders skirts. School district need to let us be teenagers and give us some freedom

Quote #3

School policy requires a parent-teacher conference prior to any suspension but the 12-year-old's mom was never notified and school officials say that it is their right to set their own policies, according to a local news report.

Eighteen children have been sent home for three day suspensions for code violations and the principal of the school states that "I've told the kids, 'We've been in school eight weeks now, teachers have individually reminded you, I have individually reminded you.'

Quote #1
all students at Millard South High School, were ordered to stay home from one to three days in late August for wearing T-shirts that memorialized Julius Robinson, 18, a Millard South football player who was shot to death in June. The shirts were being sold to help raise money so Robinson’s family could buy a headstone for his grave. A school in California is being sued because they did not have enough regulation of the dress code. A student who was allowed to wear makeup and feminine clothing was shot and killed at the school and now the family is suing because the school allowed the boy to dress so differently which may have contributed to the violent act against him.


 Quote #2
In the passage of the students wearing a shirt to remember a football played who have got killed. It was violating the school code.A student who was allowed to wear make up was shot and killed. Its time we put stop to this school dress code is getting out of hand.
