School Uniforms

Analyze the Survey Results

How do kids across the country feel about having to wear school uniforms? In March and April of 1997, an astounding 81% of kids polled on Scholastic's Web site said that public school students should not be required to wear school uniforms. But who makes up the 81%? Are they mostly boys or girls? Are they from the South, North, East, or West? Check the survey charts to find out!

We asked you to tell us

  • If public school students should be required to wear uniforms.
  • Whether wearing school uniforms makes students less or more competitive about clothing.
  • What colors you would select for school uniforms, if wearing uniforms became the law.
