“What should I wear today？” That's a question you might ask yourself in the morning. For some kids，the answer is the same every day─a school uniform.

More than 10 years ago，3 percent of all public schools in the US required that students wear uniforms. Now，that number is closer to 10 percent. Some people support the policy（政策），hoping that uniforms will encourage students to focus on（专注于）their work. Opponents，however，say students should be allowed to express themselves through their clothing.

Yes！ ◆"My school has a strict uniform policy. At school my friends and I don't have the need to discuss clothes，and we enjoy just being together and learning. The best thing I like about our uniform is the style，especially the shirts and sweaters，"said fourth grader Clifton Harris.

◆"It helps save parents' money，"a mother said. ◆“I think uniforms help students focus on their studies rather than their clothes，”Megan Mannion said. Her school，Rankin Elementary School，has had a uniform policy since 1995.

No！ ◆“I think students should choose their own clothing styles，rather than be told to wear a specific uniform，” fifth grader Kaylie Vilayvong said. Her classmate Wade Fleetwood agrees，"Kids should be allowed to wear different styles of clothes.” ◆Some parents are worried about the expense（花费）.Most schools offer uniforms at a price between $16 and $26 “What's the school going to do for people who can't afford them？” asked a father. ◆“Adults make their own clothing choices and are free to express themselves through their look，” a teacher said." Students should be allowed to choose their own clothing，too.”
