Personally, I don’t have a side that I go for. I have many reasons on why I support both sides. So, I’ll start with NO. No school uniforms. In the article, “Should Schools Tell You How to Dress” by Anna Starecheski, it claims that “Isn’t learning how to dress the right way an important skill”. I do agree with the that statement, but I don’t think that there really is a “proper” way to dress. Or the “right way”. Yes, there are some things that agree with that it’s better to look nice and presentable. But, I don’t think student should have to wear knee high skirts, pencil pants and suits all day. I also believe that most girls are targeted and affected when uniforms are inforced compared to boys. The rules are harder towards girls. For example, our dress code is no tank tops, short shorts, short skirts and of course to wear your uniform. For the boys’ dress code, the most affective dress code rule is no muscle shirts. Then again, me personally I don’t think I’d want to wear skimpy clothes, but if schools are going to try enforce dress codes, to at least make them more fair.
Hurricane Irma; Catagory 5 hurricane. It formed on August 30, 2017 near the Cape Verde Islands. It started off as a Category 2 then spiraled into a Category 3 within 24 hours.

Houses were damaged, cities were damaged, and people were damaged. All the loses of civilians is tragic. Irma caused 81 deaths, 43 in the Caribbean and 38 in the United States.

I like that you took the time to argue both sides of the topic. You're right, there are good arguments for both sides and it is a tough decision to make. You do a good job arguing both sides. Thank you for sharing your blog post this week.
