Abstract

Currently, there is a nationwide trend to adopt stricter dress codes in public schools in the United States. The decision to adopt school uniforms is most often made by a school advisory board consisting of parents, teachers, and administrators. The research purpose was to explore perspectives of parents, teachers, and students on uniforms from three high schools which varied in school dress codes.
