Q
I would like to know the pros and cons of school uniforms, especially in the middle school years.
A
There is no good scientific data to prove that wearing school uniforms in any grade leads to better academic performance or an improved school environment. I wrote a column on school uniforms, which looks at the anecdotal findings presented by school uniform advocates and offers my opinion on the issue. Perform a keyword search on our site with "school uniforms" and you'll find my column and other relevant information and discussions.
