Chapter 3 Classroom Behavior

In schools the dress code eliminates the possibility that students can wear hats, certain types of clothing and even certain colors. The students say that by putting restriction on these things is more time consuming then just letting them wear what they want. Their input is for teachers not to make a big deal about what they are wearing and they can be more focused on their work. They believe that the reason why some clothing is banned does not make any sense.

Though I agree that often time dress codes are too strict, and have restrictions that don’t make sense, there is not anything a classroom teacher can do about it. Teachers do not make these rules and if they do not enforce them they get in trouble. Wearing a hat might not offend or bother the teacher but if administration sees it the student is not the only one who will get into trouble. If students don’t agree with the rules they should speak to administration because the teachers on not the ones making the rules
