Should students be required to wear school uniforms?  You will be looking at various websites to learn more about this subject. What are the pros and cons? When you're finished researching, ask yourself--what are some things I didn't know about school uniforms before? Have my feelings changed since I started this inquiry? After you've answered these questions, you will create a PowerPoint presentation that will explain both pros and cons of mandatory school uniforms.  At the end of your presentation, you will take a stand either for or against school uniforms.
