Fashion lost at 339

By Destiny Romero

Hi! My name is Destiny, and I'm in class 8o8! I am going to be talking about the fashion here at cis 339. Well one thing I will say, and I know everybody will argree with me on this one, is that the school uniform here stinks!

The whole CIS 339 logo on the shirt is really weird! I think instead of us buying a shirt from the school, we should buy our own blue colored shirt, and wear it with our own pair of cute jeans, not Dickies pants that cost like $30 per pair! A really cool girl's uniform would be a plaid skirt, a white collored shirt with a boy's tie, a cute blazer, knee high sox's or stockings and knee high boots or hush puppies. For the boys dark pants, with a button down shirt white collared shirt, same colored tie, and hush puppies would look cute.

I asked students from around the school how they felt about the uniform. Tia W., a student from 807, said "I don't like it because I feel that when we wear uniforms it hides our personality because it is not the way we dress."

I asked another student from class 808, Jahad R, what he thought about the school uniform. He said: "I think uniform sucks! I think we should be able to wear what ever we wanna wear."

Anna M., from class 802 on the third floor, wasn't a fan of the uniform either. "I think the school uniform is ugly," she said. "The color of the shirt is ugly! I would rather have it white, like the six graders. If I would have to change anything it would be the color."

Not everyone felt the same about the uniform. Jamal D., from class 804, said: "I think the uniform is O.K. I think we should wear the shirt, but with any jeans we want."

I strongly feel that us students shouldn't have to wear uniform! It really does hide our personalities and the way we dress.
