went to a public elementary school in the 90s before they had mandatory school uniforms in 1998. At my school you knew who was poor and who were flashy. With uniforms, everybody is the same where kids won’t get picked on for not having cool clothes like their classmates.

kids know that anyway. Some have “better” khakis than others, or some have old dingy shoes vs others, or just the way their personal hygiene is so while in theory school uniforms may cut that out in, in reality it does not. Now what school uniforms do that is a benefit imo, is it doesn’t allow kids to wear trashy shite to school like those supreme or backwoods hoodies, or those gross t shirts with Rick and morty on them. Parents of pre teens and teenagers know what I’m talking about
