The Chicopee Register thinks it’s a good idea. Although it might cause some problems at first, until everyone got used to it, students would be able to pay more attention to their work and less attention to how others were dressed. Most private schools have their students wear uniforms, so why not Chicopee? Having to dress appropriately prepares students for the world of work where they can’t wear sloppy clothing. In addition, reports from Springfield School officials show that adopting a dress uniform code has resulted in good things in their schools.
